RGB colour fix is a link applied to the motherboard so that an RGB scart lead can be used between the PS2 and the TV.

This improves picture quality but without the link fitted the games come out okay but the DVD Movies come out in green instead of colour which is why you need to apply the link.

Also if u have the link fitted and r using an RGB scart lead u do not need to worry about Pal and NTSC compatibility as your PS2 will display both in full colour using the RGB Lead and Link.


With a messiah 2 Pro fitted PS2 backups work exactly the same as PS2 originals.

For booting up PS1 originals and backups when u switch on the ps2 u hold the reset button in until the blue eject light comes on and then PS1 games will boot, this also applies to DVD Movies.

U can also disable the chip completely by holding the reset button for 5 seconds.

To back-up ps2 games based on cd use CloneCD,CDRWin or BlindWriteSuite and copy them as per any other CD. Always a good idea to read and write th CD's as slow as your patience will allow as this will ensure a good copy. Also it's a better idea to make an image on yr harddrive first and then write to CD rather than do an 'on the fly' copy.

To Backup PS2 dvd's to dvd-r use PrimoDVD2 or RecordNowMax. These two programs are also very good at backing up PS2 cd's as well

Hope this helps.

Good Luck.
