Octapus...no,I'm not able to solder... tips??

**giansi** · 02-26-2006,05:13 AM

Hi all!
Yesterday it arrived my Octapus chip for my v14 ps2 slim....
After over one hour of attempts, I discovered I'm not able to work on it...
These are the points I'm not able to solve:
1) solder chip to bios..in this moment I'm watching a pic I never noted before (http://www.octapus.net/eng/index.htm) where you can see there are 10 small holes at the middle of bios connections..my chip *DOESN'T HAVE* these holes... Should I try to create these holes on my own to solder to ps2 motherboard? My tin can't attach to bios, at the present...

2) Very very very very small holes...just to make an example..how hell can I solder my wire to "W point" in ps2 mboard? (http://www.octapus.net/installation/eng/14.htm) It's tooo small, and I'm afraid to damage something....which method do you use for those such tiny holes?
Thanks,
Luca

get a installer to install the chip so that you don't destroy your ps2 since you are having difficulty doing it yourself
