Hey Ive got a d2b and I installed a wiikey without soldering to any of the pins. I read that d2b drives didnt have the #3 point to solder to but mine did. However now that it is installed, backups dont read and neither do firmware upgrades with gcos multiloader on +/-r DVD's, they start to spin and then stop. Original games do work. Take a look at my board and please give me some advice. Should I solder to the d2b chip ic pin? (None of them are touching its hard to see that.)

You were right. I re-soldered it with wire and it worked the first time.

soldering those things in can be a bit messy as u have to drop a big dolope of solder...wires are so much easier

wires are always best just incase you install a bad chip or it just needs to come back out again
