Welcome noob. By "test" do you mean backup games? If yes then go here (www.psxcopyworld.co.uk) to read up on the basics. You will need a modchip and a dvd burner if you want to make direct copies.

Yes thats what i mean by "test" I guess they call it back-ups. By looking at what you both have said there is alot of $$$$$$$$ involved with this hobby. By the looks of this I'm gonna have to look for a DVD burner:( Thanks for the info guys!!!!!!!!!:)

How can you give Blue Messiah 9/10 and Neo 2.2 10/10? Blue Messiah sucks and Neo eats up your laser. No solder 4/10? Its not that bad.

Blue Messiah is good my cousin has it and Neo 2.2 is one of the best of the SWAP chips.

I highly disagree. How is the Neo better than the no solder?

A little off topic but…
I "test" several Driect to home satelites
Good to see there are other DSS ‘testers’ in here. So are you a Dave or a Dick man? I my self will go with Dave person 1) for a better channel line up and, 2) Dick is just a pain to set up and a lot more work to get going, then Dave.
