# vWii Modding Guide
|
||||
|
||||
This page will guide you through the process of modding your vWii.
|
||||
|
||||
We will now place the required Homebrew files on the SD Card.
|
||||
|
||||
?> **Notice**
|
||||
Your SD card will need to be formatted as FAT32. If your SD Card is not formatted to FAT32, use [GUIFormat](http://www.ridgecrop.demon.co.uk/index.htm?guiformat.htm) with 32k (32768) Allocation unit size to format it.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
> 7. Delete `nand.bin` and `keys.bin` from your SD Card to free up space
|
||||
|
||||
