the scex is now stuck in the right place, but the capacitor next to it looks pretty badly messed up now :/ i think it's broken, my dad is not sure. well, we put the ps2 back together anyway, and its still working, but still doesn't boot backups... (always red screen, insert ps or ps2 disc)
is this a problem with the scex, or can it be something else? if it's with the scex, i think i might have to go find a proffessional solderer... :/
edit: also, should i upgrade my matrix infinity for any reason? might that help?
edit: i also discovered a strange thing... if i put in a copied ps1 disc, and force ps1 boot mode, then it boots... if i dont force the boot mode, then it doesnt boot. but, it doesnt boot right... it boots like
this
well, its not really clear, but the piece of text should be in the mioddle, not all over the screen.
im not sure if this is a good or a bad thing, or if this is supposed to happen or something... but if i can get the screen right, then i want a force ps2 boot mode too :P
