I understand that, but I dont know which one is the Positive Pin with the 12V and the 12v in that I attach it to.

Thats all I need to know. could you just make a quicky paint drawing with the Pic above on where the Pins are that I need to jump.

usually when a fuse blows twice, its a good idea to try and find out why.

fuses are there to protect your equipment, hooking it directly to the power source could end up frying something more important than a fuse next time.

Thanks for your answer. I'm afraid this didn't help me regain my audio.

Try attaching it to the other 12v pin on the Gamecube motherboard also.

Or Completely rewire the Power regulator.

If both those don't work, I guess your APU chip is fried. (If there is one, but IDK.)
