Yeah, I agree.

DEAR ME! JUST EXACTLY HOW HARD IS IT TO FRY A GAMECUBE?!??!!?

I TEAR OFF REGULATORS. I scotch tape the wires (better than solder imo) TO THE PROCESSOR's power diode. I SHORT 12V AND GROUND. I LET DISK DRIVE WIRES TOUCH! I FORGET MY FAN AND LET THE GAMECUBE OVERHEAT!

AND IT'S STILL NOT DEAD!

But today, I touch my heatsink and bam, it dies.

No, seriousally, in case you didn't see that, I TOUCH MY HEATSINK AND IT SHUTS OFF!

It turnes out that my power supply died, and I am going to be fretting about my board until I get a new power supply.

Yepp, life just makes sense sometimes, doesn't it.

Meh, something like me happened to me as well. Just got a new PS and worked fine.

I got a new 12v PSU today and all is well. I'm so glad that it still works.

I don't want to have to buy a new board and scotch tape the wires (better than solder imo) all of my stuff to it again.

I'm turning 14 today!

Just cause ModRetro didn't say it was my birthday today.
