    PS1/2 Do Sony DVD-Rs have some kind of copy protection?

    Crappy media can give random results. If buying Verbatim make sure they say AZO on the package.

    PS1/2 Softmodding a PS2 with only a thumb drive?

    ehow is a crap website (content farm). Their must of been a dozen things that were wrong in that article. You need a way of running the Free McBoot installer, retail SwapMagic disc, someone with an already modded console, cheat disc with a game save backup feature & a retail PS1 game (fat PS2...

    PS1/2 DTL-H 1201 (Green Debug PS1) Not Reading Backups

    Did you burn it as an image file, not a data disc. Try a different brand of CD or burn it faster. I burn at 52x on Verbatim or Sony with imgBurn. Edit: Never use CD-RW, even if it worked, it would but a lot of strain on your laser.

    PS1/2 codebreaker for esr

    Get the non-GUI ESR.ELF (its only 29kb), then rename it CB_launch.elf, use uLaunch to copy it into your BOOT folder on your memory card. Edit: if you have a scph-7500x or later console, CodeBreaker won't run from USB, you will have to copy it to your memory card. If you have a console made...

    PS1/2 Questions about HDL / OPL etc.

    OPL & ESR have very good compatibility. For the few games that won't work on neither there is SwapMagic & CogSwap.

    PS1/2 One HDD for both PS2 and Wii?

    Like XiTaU said, format the drive as FAT32. None of the files will conflict. Wii has a apps folder, PS2 has a BOOT folder. Rip your Wii games to a .wbfs file and place in the wbfs folder. Rip the PS2 games to an .iso if under 4GB, CD games go in a folder called CD, DVD games go in a folder...

    PS1/2 PS2 FAT(with mcboot) or PS2 Slim(with modchip)?

    It depends on your modchip. Free McBoot v1.93 is more likely to work with your modchip than Free McBoot v1.8. Try both of them. SNES Station can be played from a DVD (maybe even a CD). You can even fill the disc with ROMs. Its even ESR compatible so you can ESR patch it and play it from a DVD...

    PS1/2 PS2 FAT(with mcboot) or PS2 Slim(with modchip)?

    Yeah i know. Its a pain trying to play PS1 backups on a softmodded PS2. POPS loader (needs network adapter & harddrive) or swap trick are the only options (their is a PS1 emulator for the PS2 but its not very good).

    PS1/2 PS2 FAT(with mcboot) or PS2 Slim(with modchip)?

    Download Free McBoot Noobie package. Put it on a flash drive. Use uLaunch to run the installer.

    PS1/2 PS2 FAT(with mcboot) or PS2 Slim(with modchip)?

    I would keep the chipped slim for PS1 games. Their are some PS2 games that won't work on a scph-75001. You could get a network adapter for the fat and have a play with Free Hard Drive Boot, POPS loader, mini OPL and the hacked OSD. You should be able to install Free McBoot on all of those consoles.

    PS1/2 Free MCBoot - No Idea How to Use

    I gave up with the PS1 emulator. I prefer to do a swap trick to load PS1 backups.

    PS1/2 I'm soo confused by the ps2 modding scene

    You only need to use USButil for games over 4GB (FAT32 file system has a 4GB file size limit) if your loading from USB with OPL. Games under 4GB can be played from ISO, you just have to give them the right name and put them in the right folder.

    PS1/2 PS2 Hard Drive Loader

    It won't work on that slim, only the first slim model. Install Free McBoot then load your games from your PC with Open PS2 Loader.

    PS1/2 Verbatim dvd-r

    SwapMagic is for games that have not been patched. If you have patched the ISO with ESR, then use the ESR.ELF to load it, no swap trick needed.

    PS1/2 how do i play burn games using freemcboot

    You mean set booktype/bitsetting to DVD-ROM. imgBurn has it set by default. Consoles from version 9 (scph-5000x) onwards have support for DVD+R.

    I,m pretty sure you can still load Priiloader without an SD card. Doesn't it insert it self into the system menu.

    Homebrew please help Getting a Wii back to stock, the safest and easiest way possible...

    The screen you see when holding the reset button is Priiloader, not BootMii. BootMii is for making/restoring a backup of your NAND flash chip. BootMii can be run from the HomeBrew channel or if you have an early Wii with BootMii installed in Boot2 you can boot it by having the right files on the...

    I rather enjoy a life of taking it easy. I haven't reached that life yet though.
    Veho @ Veho: That's a relief to hear. Do you know what happened?
