What Version Is My Console? Please Help!

[lufcfan]

Hi,
I have recently ordered my new Messiah ModChip from liksang.com. I was reading the instructions on how to set the jumpers. Of course, after reading numerous websites I figured that my PS2 was a PAL PS2 V4. However, today I saw that my model number ( which is 30003R ) was a v5. I seriously need help. I obviously need to get the jumpers set right. Any help would be great. If Charlie, or anybody at all is out there, Please Help. Any thoughts would be fantastic.

crap, i forgot to say to see if its a version 5 check to see if it has the third screw in the expansion bay when you turn it upside down, otherwise it will be a v4

but definately sounds like a version 5 with that model number

This topic could really use a sticky....

It's probably a v4Rbased on when you bought it (as per your e-mail). The solder straps on the Messiah are for PAL or NTSC so it's not sensitive to v4/v5 etc.

If you're not a good solderer, consider having it done proefessionally. See my thread "PS2 Soldering Tips" and just wait till you get the Messiah!
