Hi there, i had some heavy probs with installation of the magic 3 in my PS2 v4 ......
The install of the chip did a really professional technician in my company - it was the first time he does ps2 but he is soldering the whole day some electronic related things so i thought there will be no prob to give him this job.
The ps2 first did not read anything, then it reads one or 2 org-Games but nothing else and in the end - after the 3. installation of the chip it does booting everytime but nothing else then originals (1&2) - same function as without chip !!
After that i had a bad feeling to use magic 3 and i decided to let him deinstall the chip and do an professional installation of e.g. messiah 2 in a gamecopy-store.
But now, after de-soldering, the PS2 donīt work anymore, the DVD-Drive spins only a little bit and then it stands still - the laser is moving/searching.
The solder-points are clean and looking like new and the technician said he will never touch a ps2 in his life, the mod-chip systems and the installation manuals were not very professional..........
Do someone know this prob and what can i do ???????
Maybe there is somebody who can repair a ps2 ?? Or buy it for catching the working things in it??
