Installing xeno mod chip

Use this image to help. A wireless install should work fine, but i found using wires to be safer to avoid bridging. This the best chip for the gamecube! Install is very easy 6 solder points not tht hard, and what was even greater was that I didn't have to do the pot tweak it worked right after install!!! You guys are the bomb Sold me Xen8gc knockoff not Xenogc as pictured on the product page.

Chip menu loads black and white and with static instead of stable and colorful. When i switxh region it plays in black and white with static. Price i paid: 22 dollars not 9 as mentioned. Ebay prics for xen8gc is 4 dollars rippes off: i think so. Shipping to Florida took a long time. Don't expect the authentic chip from this site and be prepared to wait.

You want solid shiny solder connections. Alternatively you can use wire something like 30 AWG wire to connect the points on the chip to the points on the board. Once the chip is installed you'll want to test it. I recommend putting the console back together, but leaving the top of the console off until you verify it works. There are status lights on the modchip that you can use to see the status of the installation. The colors and their meanings vary, but in general seeing an LED light up in general is a good sign.

You can test booting backup discs, and games from other regions. There is also a XenoShell menu you can access by holding the start button on the first controller while starting a game.

If your laser is worn out you may need to adjust the laser potentiometer to get it to read game backups. Be careful though, since if you move it too far you might not be able to read games at all, or only be able to read backup games. The XenoGC is a fairly easy chip to install into a console. If you are good at soldering the hardest part is taking apart the console because of how many screws need removed.

The chip works very well. GG Shells. GG Buttons. GG Screens. GG Accessories. GG Games. GG Display Stands. GBA Ultimate Consoles. Build-to-Order GBA. GBC Ultimate Consoles. TCH RockerGaming.
