For some reason I am getting 11.6v on all my regulators and I don't know why. (Btw I'm using 12v source from the Wii Wal wart)

Clear photo of all wiring pls. Easiest way to find the problem.

sin^2(x) + cos^2(x) +e^(i*pi)
Pin outs and ins correct? Like input is on input, and out put on output?

My dude, you mixed up the input and output pins.

As Ginger said, those might be dead now. Wire them up the right way around and probe them, but don't be too sad if they're cactus. Props to you for checking the regs before wiring them up, though.

Rewired, 1.15v and 3.3v are working perfectly fine, sadly though I'm getting nothing from the 1v and 5v. At least half of them are not working and not all of them.

Same experience for me a year or two ago, mine got really hot so I assume something melted together in it...
