making 1:1 copies
 

Is it possible to make 1:1 copies for a PS2 game so you don't need a mod chip?

nope theres no way to do that unless u had the cd/dvd press that sony uses to make them

Just get a chip - stay away from the Slide Card / No Solder / Flip-Top :rolleyes: 'mods' or any which require swapping.

Go with a Messiah 2 / DMS3 / Magic V / Apple (depending on console version of course).

I got my PS2 yesterday. How can I find what version my console is? Also, is soldering these chips easy to do?

Oh, I also have a Liteon LDW-811S which can burn both CD and DVD. Is this a good piece of hardware?

I'm guessing this is my version number: SCPH-50001

Thats the model number. It can be a V9, or a V10. What is the date code and what country are you in? Was the PS2 supported by card board or styrofoam inside the PS2's cardboard box?

I did some searching around on the net and it is V10. It's model number SCPH-50001 and contains a date code of 3C. I'm in the US and my PS2 came in styrofoam.

its a V9 not a V10

as long as u have a fast pc its a good burner unlike me i have the worse of luck with the dam things it was burning 4x for me great now i can only burn with it at 2x to make working copys of ps2 games if u do burn a ps2 game with it at 4x and it dont work try doing it at 2x instead of makeing about 6 costers like me untill i figerd out it wont work :( i think its my pc is the cause of it not burning at 4x it must not be fast enough even though it past on the reqmnts.

Unless ur experienced with surface mount soldering and have the right kit I wouldn't go anywhere neer it urself. Get a pro to fit for u.
