In MIOS, only the bottom 25% of memory could be used. MIOS simply made sure not to keep any important things in that range. However, by modifying the wires, it was possible to manipulate the PowerPC into using other parts of memory as the bottom 25%, allowing the rest of memory to be seen. The data extracted is then sent out through a GameCube controller port, which tmbinc set up to be receiving in a computer. When this procedure was repeated for all regions of memory, the entire memory was known. Overlapping sections were also taken to ensure that MIOS was not overwriting anything relative to the modified wires.
