So, I drilled the heads off of the inverted hex screws and pulled my N64 apart, Plugged in a copy of starfox and wanted to test to make sure it would work....
No luck, black screen, I looked around, then remembered , I needed a jumper pack!
plugged the jumper pack in the wrong way accidentally, The red light no longer comes on....
I checked the PSU with my multimeter while swearing, there is no voltage coming from it, So I guess that means that it is "sleeping"?
If that is the case then it should work in a couple days when the fuses re-set?

Good news, let it rest for a while, Poor little bugger was a little tired and needed a nap.

Yes I've done this before. One of the sure things to send your n64 into the infamous sleep mode.

I've shorted out my power supply several times before, but unplugging it and plugging it back in did the trick. I have yet to encounter this "sleep mode" you guys mention.

When it happens it can take a few minutes to 3 days before the n64 turns back on.

"sleep mode" just means you blew out the auto-resetting fuses in the power supply
