Ok My friend got 2 wiikeys and installed his perfectly and it loaded everything fine. He attempted it on mine and faced problems. One of the pads were close to pad 3 so he tried desoldering it and the pad 3 got destroyed. So he traced it to the IC chip and soldered it. Also this connection went to the wiikey chip which funnily had to use the alternate point too. All the connetions were tested with a voltmeter and it looked as there was no bridging done. So when we tried to load a backup and the config disc,it wont load. It says unregnised disc. All originals work. Please what could be the problem? What shall I do sell it and get a new one?

I have posted a pic with with the alternate wiring on the IC chip

Do you have a better close up of your install? It is very hard to tell with that picture.

Though, it looks like you might have the wire soldered to the 4th leg, but it should be soldered to the 5th one.
