Failure with the XENO

24 Apr 2006 7:55

Well, I installed the XENO chip and it didn't work. I assumed that it was because I hadn't quite solidly connected one of the points. Since there are no wires, just a hard solder, I think one corner of it was lifted up a bit. So I used a small length of wire to try and make the contact, and I still didn't have any luck.

So I decided to remove the mod-chip and install it using wires. But when I was removing the modchip it pulled up a couple of traces. I tried soldering back to the contact point of the trace for those two pieces, but it still wouldn't boot my backups.

I guess the good thing is that the Game Cube still works just fine, but I wasted the cost of the chip, and all the time I put into it. :(
