Hold R1, L1, R2, L2, at the same time and power up your ps2. You’ll see what firmware you are on. DMS was a great chip, at the time. I still have a DMS 3+ in my ps2. Still works great.


I like HDLoader to load my games from the HDD. You can also check out OPL. Booting from HDD or network would be best. Usb is too slow.

look on the back of the console near the power port and see if there is a warranty sticker there. if it is cut or says VOID anywhere on it it probably had been chipped.

and the best way to load games from an HDD is with FreeMCboot you can get a FMCB memory card from amazon for like $1.80

    I'm so pumped, NCAA football video game is back after a 10 year hiatus, coming to SeriesS/X, PS5 in July.
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Wish they would let us play the NCAA football 14 on newer xbox, its one of the only games I love and own on disc still, that is not back compatible, bs.
  • AdenTheThird @ AdenTheThird:
    @BigOnYa My dad recently bought a spare Series X off of me, got game pass, and saw Madden '24 on Game Pass, decided to try it out.

    ...He was a bit taken aback by the 60GB download size. Poor guy's still living in the 90s!

  • AdenTheThird @ AdenTheThird:
    @K3Nv2 He was looking into consoles for his house anyway (for my younger siblings and himself) and I had a spare XSX and Switch I ended up selling him at pretty steep cuts. I would just give them to him, but I did buy them with the intent to sell them... and college is super expensive.
