Hi, I've just recently dug out my old gamecube and I am trying to install the Xeno modchip. I started with the wireless install which I wish I hadn't. Now I am trying to do a wired install but a handful of pads have lifted. I am using some alternate points but I am still not getting it working and I'm not sure what I am doing wrong. If someone could look and maybe they will see my mistake that would be great.

Currently none of the wires are shorted according to my multimeter, and when I check continuity with the alternate points and the little bit of the original traces, it seems good. When I turn it on, the lights stay solid, holding select does nothing (wireless controller, not sure if that would affect the timing of the input) and it does not read my burned disc

Ok I actually got it sort of working, I was reading another thread and added an extra wire to the via since the pad was torn out. Getting the xeno menu, it is very faint and jumps around. I assume that's not right. Any suggestions on what connection needs work?..
