Kinda figured its the mod. The PS2 functions correclty with the mod chip in there. I can play regular games, it ejects normally and everything, just cant play the dvdr backups anymore or cdr backups
What is a good place to send it off to to get a good mod chip put in it? I guess since the no solder one is screwed up rather than try another no solder one which may or may not break in a few weeks I might as well get something that's gonna work for longer than a week
heh..
I've heard good things about the Messiah ones, and about the Magic ones that are no swap. Hard to decide which is the best though
Also does anyone know a good person to have do that? Someone in IRC that suggested this website or any questions also suggested charlie from this website for installing the mod chip, but not sure if he does that or what his fee would be
Thanks again for all your info and time. I just want to get my PS2 back to playin DVDrs and CDRs again as soon as possible
