hi guys!desperately need help here! and fast!

got my wii us version last night.

forget bout the voltage differences (aka no stepdown converter)

when i plug the wii to the socket and turn it on "Pop"

and it wont turn on anymore. My bet is that the adaptor burn out but could it be that the wii itself burned out too? (worst case scenario)

any ideas what happened? if i need to just replace the adaptor is there any shop near shah alam/kl?

help and suggestions appreciated! and fast! and thanks!

the biggest possibility i might say is ur Wii is burned as well...

ouch!

seriously?

any possibilities that just the adaptor got zapped but not the Wii?

Will never truly know until u give it a try with a new adaptor. Good Luck.

I think the wii also burn just like last time my friend's dreamcast.However, I think it is just minor problem so no need to worry to much.Just send it to the shop where you bought.

In the case of my Gamecube, only the power adapter konked. So there is still hope. Finding another power adapter however is no easy task even for the Gamecube back then.

The Cube and Wii is different from the Dreamcast, the Dreamcast's AC/DC adapter is built in, the cube and wii's ones are outside.

If you're really lucky, the 240V should have fried the conversion circuits before it could reach your Wii.

Djinn had a supply of 240V Wii Adapters when I was there on Saturday you might want to check with him.

if you can just bring your wii and will do some testing see your units is still ok or not

Okay how the heck can you forget about the voltage differences?
Aren't the shop you got the Wii from supposed to remind you about it at least?
Good luck getting a new adapter and enjoying ya wii
Hope everything's alright

i thought the wii adaptor is multi-voltage?? take a look at the label on the power brick.

if u r lucky, its standard voltages and u can buy one off the shelf at pasar road.

anyhow i am sure u can get a after market power brick soon.

one over-excited wii owner turned traumatised

Oh.. too bad....
good luck to you buddy~

oh my, hope everything is fine
one wii owner in spore also did the same thing, lucky not fried, just change the voltage thingy in the wii itself

nvm lar...CNY coming soon, sure got angpau and buy a new 1 lor...

CNY cum only i gip ppl angpow, nobody gip me liao

Happened to my GameCube, only the adaptor got burned. So, your Wii might still be safe.

Jst bring it to the shop and test.

thanks y'all!

help appreciated

well.... it is kinda strange that the shop seller tell you or sell to you the adapter together... really bad seller...

well in the end of the day, djinn n the trip switch inside the Wii's original adaptor saved my @$$...luckily my Wii is saved from the blazing fire of TNB electic supply.

thnx djinn! and y'all!

no problem..[although i dint do anythin ]
