entii-for-workcubes is a collection of drivers and ARC firmware to run the PowerPC version of Windows NT 3.51 or NT 4.0 operating system on the Gamecube, Wii, and vWii.

Compatibility

  • Software compatibility
    • NT 3.51 RTM and higher. NT 3.51 betas (build 944 and below) will need kernel patches to run due to processor detection bugs. NT 3.5 will never be compatible, as it only supports PowerPC 601. (The additional suspend/hibernation features in NT 3.51 PMZ could be made compatible in theory but in practise would require all of the additional drivers for that to be reimplemented.)
  • Hardware compatibility:
    • GameCube
    • Wii
      • Wii mini with SD card hardmod
      • Wii U via vWii mode
    • The following systems are theoretically supported, although not tested due to the rarity of such hardware
      • Broadway Evaluation Board
      • Cortado boards

Installation

You must bring your own NT iso. Follow the installation instructions on the projects GitHub README.
