PS2 Boot Method-No Mod, knife, or cog Needed!!!!
 

I just figured it out--how to copy and play PS2 games without a modchip or money out of your own pocket to get them to play. There were some methods called the "cog & knife" methods. Both of them explained a way swap the gameshark cd with a copied game without the ps2 knowing that the tray was opened. I know how to do it now. If you can get another lid for your ps2 (an old one that is of the same make) and get a nice square cut out over the area where the tray is--needs to be big enough for you to reach your hand in and remove the cd, you can make the swap without anything else being added. The gameshark is the boot sector, and since the boot is never interrupted, this method works. If you don't have a spare lid, use your own. Just put a plastic hinge or something on it so tht you can close the lid to keep out dust. Just thought I'd share.

Worship me when it works for you!!!!!!
