hey guys hopefully someone can help me out here.

I ordered a wiikey2 presoldered to the wiiclip v14 and it arrived today, I got my wii open no problem and have got the chip attached but I can't the white power cable that you have to pull it to remove the drive back in for the life of me. Is there some trick to it or am I completely missing something? please someone help me out!

Use a high power magnifier and look inside the connection, I had the same problem and a 10X showed me a slightly bent pin which prevented all 12 pins to align properly and actually shorted out when I pushed the connector together. ( 2 pins in the same slot )

    Thing is , the videos work fine in the Edge Dev and Canary builds. But whatever the fix they made was, has never been pushed to Beta or Stable builds. Its been that way for as far back as I tested. Which was Edge 84. They are on 125 now.

    @RedColoredStars, Yeah, and I was in quite a mood at that time. I would consider choosing Firefox or Opera instead, been using Firefox for over 7 years now than Chrome.
  • RedColoredStars @ RedColoredStars:
    Tried contacting Nintendo to see if they can reach out to MS about it. But Nintendo said the videos are working fine. Without enough people saying no, they don't work fine, it will never get fixed.
  • RedColoredStars @ RedColoredStars:
    I have Firefox and used it for many years. But Edge runs noticible faster on my pc at both opening and loading pages.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    I don't think Nintendo will know anything about troubleshooting Edge. They mostly do technical support regarding their console family.

    Tell them you downloaded their trailer without permission

    Good one, Ken.
  • RedColoredStars @ RedColoredStars:
    Right. But they could create a ticket that gets forwarded to the proper team. I think Nintendo would care that their videos aren't working on a major browser

    Chrome is like "BRRRRRRRR" but I dislike the fact it's a powerhouse, and the fact that Manifest v3 exists
  • RedColoredStars @ RedColoredStars:
    Im not sure if a ram stick has a whole lot to do with your eye. lol :P
