I sanded the motherboard down and it worked for a few hours, but then it wouldn't turn on at all (led just blinked), so then I had a stuck of light and the gamecube started to work again for some reason but the audio and video doesn't work.
I've tried different plugs, looking for shorts (can't find any), different tvs, more power, bridging the fuse and adding another wire for ground but still nothing.
Anyone know what might be causing it.

This happpened on mine, the problem was that it shorted and I had to unplug the power brick and leave it for a while, then my video and sound came back. If you still don't have audio but get video though you probably sanded too much and need to bridge the sound line. Hope this helps :D
Anybody know where I can get a laser doodle in the UK?

If the light blinks and then shuts off, you are PROBABLY missing a tiny resistor or capacitor on the back of the motherboard. If this is the case, you are copulate.

No the light doesn't blink it actually stays on.
Edit: Found a little bit of solder and got it to run again except with any video or audio (like before).
I did not sand the sound trace.
Anyone know what might it be?

That's it
I'm scrapping the first design in order to keep it really small.
But this time I'm keeping it undercover, kinda like beta and his secret 64.
I'm keeping it so undercover that I'm not even going to say the name I came up a long time ago, for it like that's a first

Update time

His secret64 isn't that secret, some of us know what the progress is on the thing as of now, and have been following it a little bit.
