1. This is a picture of the U10 chip after I removed it. I thought I had heated it up enough but I was wrong. One leg got completely ripped off the chip, and the other 2 somehow stayed stuck to the board and broke. Is there any other chip I could use or a place I could get a U10 chip.

2. Another worry I have is when I removed the U5 chip one of the pads came off, I don't think this is as much of an issue cause three of the legs are soldered together. So that should be fine?
And the pads from the capacitors and resistor around the U5 chip aren't used so no concerns there either?

3. And my last question for now. Have I removed enough of the LDU chip from the wii mainboard? Removing this chip was pretty time consumming.

Thanks in advance to anyone who can help.

U can use the U9 instead of the u10 and the pad ripped is fine since the legs need to be bridged together and removing the ldo is easy if the legs are gone so just leave ur iron on it till that bad boy slides right out
