Magic 2 wire
 

does the ps1 and dvd share a wire. This will really help me.
Thankz

:confused:

i mean if u pull off the wire that plays psx games will it play DVDs or do they run through different wires because dvds work on my ps2 but psx copies dont

dvd will play with no chip it needs no wires

so suspect scex connection

Hey Dust.... If I remember correctly form his other posts about this, his PS2 will play PS2 backup dvds BUT will not play PS1 backups........ (I think this is the problem he is having)

yes
power,ground,reset,scex is all that is needed to boot ps1 games
on a messiah

scex is used for ps1 only so this likely to be his problem

can you explain that
thankz

The scex wire has more than likely come loose..... Open the PS2 and check to see if it has.....

is scex part of the modchip. If it is either my dad will orr i will take it somewhere

YES..... Take it somewhere......
There is a scex connection on the chip..There is a wire that is soldered to that and is soldered to your PS2.... One of the two ends may have came loose....

good thing that there is a store near me that does it.

Thanx dust, that is a handy bit of info.

Thankz BG and Dust2Dust for all your help ill post later after my dad takes it apart if thats the problem

i think your right the wire is the problem

they said between $30 and $50 for the 1 wire is that a decent price

Unless you can do it yourself..... That's a good price.....
If you could do it yourself, that would be a bad price...:cool:

well i cant only 14 i dont trust myself with that

Then between $30-$50 dollars is a GOOD price for YOU.....:cool:

good i dont want to get ripped off

There is always a possibility of getting ripped off... If you are so concerned about that, then you should not deal with that certain shop....
You should be able to trust the people you are dealing with, and not have to ask that question....

heh

scex is one of the most awkward points to do

as for is it good price
its good price if it works and u are happy to pay it

who fitted it for you,they should do it for free

i bought the ps2 w/ the chip in it from www.playthegames.com

cant wait till these peolpe are
