Yep, what do you mean by bridged ground? I have ground connected. it is 1.5, and WBFS. I got it to load into the menu, so I'm assuming the wires are hooked up right. I don't think it would fry without any of the wires being moved.

After re wiring it, I still can't figure out how to get it to work. I soldered everything up, and turned it on. Got the GC-Linux up after pressing the switch, and went into the Wiikey menu. Then it complained that the SD was corrupt, so i reformatted and installed my SSBM back on. Booted up...

Thanks for the response! I was looking into the types of plastic, and HIPS came up as the primary type to use. Would you recommend a certain thickness? I have access to both a CNC and a Vacuum forming( yay school!) so I will be using those in my case projects. I want to use the CNC to its...

For CNC Case making, how would you do the sides of the case? I have access to a CNC, but I'm not sure how to design the case with CNC in mind. I was thinking of doing plates for each side (so 6 total), and then just epoxying them together. Are there better methods? It seems that this way...

Re: Wiikey black screen problem Yeah it was just a wiring problem, thanks

Hey everyone! I just wired up the custom regulator, and all the voltages checked out fine, 1.5v , 1.7v and 3.3v. However, when I wired up the Gamecube to the regulator, all the voltages dropped by a couple tenths ( like 1.7 to 1.3) and messed up the video. Here is the album of pics on Imgur...

Ok, so I just wired up my wiikey tonight, and everything was fine. I put a on/off switch on pin 29 which i slide back and forth really quick to simulate a closed tact switch for now(only had open tacts available). I got it to work first try, and i booted up into the wiikey menu selected my...

It seems my regulator is dead. I didn't do anything to it, but if i hear a sound then some electricity should be going through, not just a broken fuse. I will investiate further when I have the time. Meanwhile... I have been looking at the custom regulators, and I am a bit confused on how to...

I haven't thought of doing that, I'll go try that soon. Anything I should worry about before bridging it?

Re: My gamecube portable worklog (unamed) UP 5/12/12 I just received my wiikey in the mail! It works fine on my wii. However, I have run into a problem. My power board on the gamecube isn't working. Its making a tiny squeaking noise when I turn it on. I think it's one of the caps, but I am...

Re: My gamecube portable worklog (unamed) UP 4/25/2012 If anybody has the same error I did, here is how you fix it. Hopefully, grab another Gamecube or Wii in working condition. Re-Assemble the Memory card into its case, and keep power cycling while inserting the memory card. When it asks to...

Re: My gamecube portable worklog (unamed) UP 4/24/2012 OK this is starting to get annoying :neutral2: I have two Gamecube memory cards, one is black and one is white. I was soldering the white one in, because It has more memory than the black. I soldered to the spots up front instead, and...

Re: My gamecube portable worklog (unamed) UP 4/24/2012 The relocation spot, so the logic chips.

Re: My gamecube portable worklog (unamed) UP 4/24/2012 I wired to the spots in Ashen's guide. It shouldn't matter, I have already done continuity tests with my multimeter, and they all test positive.

Re: My gamecube portable worklog (unamed) with a few questio Hey everyone! I have started working on trimming the motherboard, and am currently relocating the memory card. When I rewired everything, the memory card is active, but it has an error saying "unable to use". I believe it has...
