Hello, i'm new to this scene, i've some question :

1. How to identify my PS2 are modded or not?
-my PS2 can read bootleg DVD's (priced at $0.5) sold freely near my house but can't read burned disc (all i got are dreaded "Please insert PS2 disc" message)

2. Based on my case above, how to burn a backup disc?

3. I found a file on an ISO, there's DUMMY.DAT file, can i safely removed it for making a backup disc?

Please help since i want to play a game (SMT Nocturne) which are not sold near me...

How to tell your burnt ps1discs are bad vs. Modchip

Hi

So i just bought a used PS1 scph7502 which according to the seller had a modchip that he was able to play games his friends had copied for him, and I've been trying to make backups of some of my games but they don't work. What I get is the "please insert ps1 disc" or whatever it says. The ps1 came with an retail tekken 3 which works without problems.

Now, after reading some I realise that this might be because the games I've tried burning so far (Spyro 3 and Crash Bash) have antimodchip...

Is there a way to use a PS4 or PS3 controller with the PS2?

Hey peeps,

I have a phat PS2 that I've had running HDAdvance with a HDD since I was a kid (meaning someone else did the mod). I've been using the same wired controllers the PS2 came with since then, and at this point they've gotten pretty messed up and unmanageable. I'm planning on upgrading the console to either a PS3 or PS4 later on in the year, so am thinking of buying a Dual Shock 3 or Dual Shock 4 controller now that I can then use for both that and my current PS2. However, this would...

PS2 softmod - what are my options?

I've been using HDAdvance - which, according to Wikipedia, is a pre-pressed (and therefore more limited) clone of HDLoader - for years now in my FAT PS2 with an IDE HDD. It was done for me when I was a kid, but as someone with a love for modding, tweaking and customisability, I've been looking around at the other options, and they seem a lot better; they allow the execution of files other than PS2 ISOs, and the use of themes, as well as out-of-the-box UIs that aren't butt-ugly. I'm thinking...

Would FreeMcBoot work with Matrix

I have a PS2 with Matrix. This person is selling me FreeMcboot, along with SATA(which I already have). Is using FreeMcboot vs. Matrix better? Sometimes a game would freeze on my PS2, could I attribute that to my internal HDD or could the Matrix thing be at fault? Thanks!

Buying a mayumi v4 Modchip

Hey there

I'm currently looking for a respectable seller of a mayumi v4 modchip.
Couple of issues tho.
1. the mayumi v4 chip must be for a ntsc console.
2. I live in australia, so the seller must be able to ship to Australia. sidenote, cheaper shipping would be preferable. Aka in the ~10 american dollar range.

Thats pretty much my problem right now.

If someone can link me to their trusted seller, it would be much appreciated.

Thank you.

Do they work on PS2 games? Because I am not getting any, I tried it on PS1 and they work fine there so the controller is not faulty. I am suspecting that controller port might have some flaw.

I currently have a PS2 Slim model SCPH-75001 with Free MCBoot installed, but I want to install a good modchip. What's a good modchip? What are the advantages of a modchip over soft modding? I think after my researching into the matter, I've narrowed it down to modbo 4.0/5.0(I don't think that one is officially made by the original manufacturer though) or matrix infinity( I know there are a lot of fake clones out there, some of which aren't even good ones, but I think this one here is legit:...

Fat PS2 SATA to IDE HDD adapter setup

How can I rip import games with HDLoader?

Hi there, I've got a few games imported from Japan like Namco X Capcom. But HDLoader won't see them, so I can't Rip those games on to my fat PS2.
Are there any other solutions for ripping import games on the Ps2 itself?

Thanks

Does anyone know which modchip is this?

Finally, after several years, I had the courage to open up my ps2 and check for myself which modchip had it included with it. But, for my surprise, it doesn't say anything else besides Modbo 4.2. Any idea? I want to know about the configs it has.

i got really bored this week so i decided to spend a good amount of money on things that i could use to mod my ps2. everything seems to work except for the network adapter. i tried it out every way i could but nothing seems to work... i can see marks of the person who had it before me and that they tried to clean it... im rather pissed off that i waited all this time for this stupid adapter and it doesn't work... i am posting here to see if there is a certain step a may have missed.

PS1 swap tricks on fat PS2s

Hi guys. I just bought a fat PS2, scph-30001, and installed a hard drive to load games via OPL using FMCB. PS2 games are working fine, but I'm wanting to play some PS1 games and I've heard booting them from HDD in OPL via POPS is not the best for what I want to play (FF7 and others).

So in short what is the best way to do a swap trick on this console for PS1 games? I know I can't use psxlauncher.elf because the system isn't a v9 but would the browser/ulaunch swap trick work? Or is there...
