I have a RVL-CPU-01 wii motherboard is it possible to use it to make a G-Boy because the Guide says it recommends RVL-CPU-40. Will it still work?

You can, but you shouldn't. What you have is an old 6 layer Wii, which consumes twice the power and produces way more heat than a CPU-40 4 layer Wii. I'm unsure if the Gboy's cooling solution is sufficient to keep the temp low enough to use in a non-airconditioned space, so I'll need a cite check on that. I recommend locating a 4 layer Wii and using that instead.
