    PS1/2 PMAP doesn't ask for dual layer DVD?

    I tried the PMAP program on my SCPH-39004 PS2. It does read (burned) discs, but it's not at it's best. To use it, I followed this post: Using the calibration tool I can't get the jitter lower then 3100-3200 which was the original position. Then at step 33 I put in a single layer DVD, a...

    Someone gave me a PS2 console, it should read discs. But somehow it waits 1-2 minutes before a inserted disc starts spinning. And then it does make some clicking noises for another couple of minutes before it detects what disc it is. But after the discs is detected, everything works fine, no...

    Brewster storing gyroids in Animal Crossing City Folk?

    In the past I didn't know what to do with gyroids so I sold them to Tom Nook. But then I've read Brewster can store your gyroids if you drink 7 cups of coffee in a row without letting it cool down and have a gyroid in your pocket. But I drunk more then 7 cups already (and never let it cool) but...

    PS1/2 Music of Crash Bandicoot 3 NTSC (version) is slow on PAL PS2 with Modbo chip

    If I play the NTSC version of "Crash Bandicoot 3: Warped" on my PAL PS2 (SCPH-39004) with Modbo 5.0 modchip, the music (and probably the voices too) is slow. I tried to change the "PS2 SCREEN FIX" option in the modchip from color (default) to NTSC and PAL60, but the music is still slow. This...

    I bought a cheap PS2 (SCPH-39004). It came with 2 untested controllers (turns out they both are good except sticky thumb caps), EyeToy cam and a bunch of burned games. For 10 euros. The seller told me it doesn't read discs, so I supposed the laser needed replacement. But it turns out it only...

    I want to repair some PS2 controllers (SCPH-10010 H) with new membranes. But unlike a A-model which I repaired in the past, these H-models don't have part numbers on the membranes.

    Is this a complete NAND backup?

    Some months ago I made a NAND backup of my working Wii U. So far I remember, I used the dumper from the web exploit. Because it took so long I turned off the TV and forgot the Wii U. About 6 hours later I came back and it was turned off. On the SD card I found 15 chunks of mlc.bin, all of them...
