Im not using this for a GC

also, I didnt want to ruin the screw because I figured I would need it. I then thought I could just put a regular screw in there. but than how do I get the screw out?

you mean the power brick that plugs into the GC, if this is for your DCp that will get you absolutely no where the GC PSU is inside the actual GC and runs off of the 12 volts that the brick supplies.

Yes, technically you need 120v to get 12v out of it.... wouldn't it be better to buy a regulator...?

No, I believe he wanted to do what Dave did with his DCp (which is using a gamecube PSU). I think wants to know where to input voltage, or something among those lines.

yes that is what i am talking about trust me, i know the guts of the GC well, there is absolutely nothing of any importance inside the GC power brick, the part he wants is clipped onto the bottom of the GC mobo, he can buy one on the internet for ~15$
