my v9 died with a magic V chip installed it last alil while then when watching a movie it died. I dont know if it was the chip or i had my movies on princos dvd-rs but the guy is redoing another unit for me a v9 with a dms3 costing me 20$
i spent so much alrdy on the new system 112$ for the shiping chips and nonsence i should had kept my apple and said to hell with the new games that had 2x toc. I have not heard any storys of dms3's killing v9's just messiah 2's and magics so i hope my dms3 last and to be safe i will use my v7 to play my dvds from now on
reason i used the ps2 cause my cheap ass apex dvd player plays moives with stupid video com even when i take that carp out when ripping it its still there and theres no way to trun it off
some moives play fine and others like x-men 2 has video com on my dvd player. and i read on newz some say that cheap media overheats the laser and kills the ps2 and i was useing cheap media on my dvd movies but we may never know the real reason of the v9's dieing.
