Charlie,
Total PS2 newbie here so pls pardon the fog <g>
OK, if I have the original disk and do a proper CloneCD backup (w/o any patches), it will boot without a mod chip? If so, I have GameShark 2 v1.9, will that work in lieu of DVDRX?
I assume the above is about CDR backups. What about DVD backups?? For those I'd need the OrigaChip you already told me about right?

No - you need an internal 8 wire modchip in conjunction with DVDRX.
It gets more complicated with DVDRs because now the version of your POS2 is important. v4 & v3 PS2s with NEO2.2 boot DVD-Rs with GS2/1.9. v5 PS2s with NEO2.5 DVD boot DVD-Rs with GS2/1.93. Origachip on US PS2 is unproven on v5 but v3/v4 uses DVDRX.
Good luck!!
