duo chips
 

Im thinking of getting the duo chip, but when I visit the duo site they said that fakes of their chips are flooding around. Anyone could show me a site that is a authorized duo reseller..

And if I get the duo, do I need to download some sort of "Software or bios", so that I can play my backed up games or once I install it, Im ready to play.

go to the duo site and look for links to buy them i use www.modzone.com also search= how to tell a fake on this forums
as for the duo chip itself you don't need any new programs once you install it your ps2 should boot everything they are a great little chip

Try www.modchips.cc

yup that for the usa

www.ukmodchips.biz

the duo mod is very very popular now and i deffinatly would advise v4-8 to get them :):D

Great, since I already the chip from modchip.cc last night. Is there any wires or flux I must get? or they include those in the package?

The only thing youll get in the package is the chip itself.

crap. Is there a site that has the "How to" on the duo chip and the tools required? or anyone care to share thehow to knowlege with me?

how much soldering have you done before and on whcih machine r u going to install the chip in?

I do soldering at school and some a home, so soldering is not a problem, but finding out where to plug in the wires, that is the problem. Because in school, all the items and tools are listed, but I doubt there is will be a nice list with that chip. So I will need to know what type of wire, flux, etc. I would need.


As for which machine, its going to be on a v4.

Read the Ultimate Info Sticky. It has a nice tips section for solding chips.

you know what, I already have all those items the installation tips. I even got the install diagram for the duo chip. I notice that there are 2 different diagrams, the "no gap" and "gap" bios. How do I determine which one I should be using?

On the install guides look at the chip that contains pins M,N,O,P. The chip legs will have a gap in between them in the middle of the chip. Compair the install guides, you will see the difference.
