'''[11h00]:''' Testings were going to start today but I found a strange issue with my Windows install causing any app using DirectX or OpenGL to instantly crash (confirmed this behaviour with Dolphin, some Modern Apps and all my PC games). Reinstalled GPU drivers but nothing changed. Since I'm too bored to inspect this and find the cause, it's time to reinstall Windows from zero again (*sigh*). Postponing testings until I fix that...

Because of that, I couldn't confirm many problems above (except Wii Message Board, GC Disc Channel and Save Management that behaved exactly the same way already listed above). Then I remembered that I saw somewhere in WiiBrew that real Wiis in soft brick state show the same error, because of region mismatch (the same occur when you install a EU System Menu in a JP Wii, for example). Did a quick test with the other japanese versions of Wii Menu and all have this issue too, discovered that it's a regression from {{revision|4.0-822}}, more details in {{issue|7480}}.

'''[23h30]:''' It was a busy day so I didn't progress much with this quest. The news are that I finished testings with v130 (2.0E), same problems already listed, nothing new or different and also that I opened {{issue|7480}}, the one with info regarding the regression affecting japanese versions of Wii Menu. Because of that, I'll provide limited testing with japanese versions but I plan checking them again once this regression get fixed. Besides that, did some refactoring in this page (still messy but better than before) and... oh sh*t, forgot the logs again. I'll write here so I don't forget in next testings: '''take logs while testing System Update, this will help some devs''' (in fact, someone asked that in IRC) :P

'''[17h18]:''' Updates on {{issue|7480}}: it never existed! The bug was caused by official build bot using an outdated compiler but this is fixed since {{revision|4.0-2139}}. Since I'm not too far with these testings, I'm sticking now to {{revision|4.0-2169}} (latest available at time of this writing). Will also retest v97, v128 and v130 in the new build to make sure the results are accurate...
