Arakon Or Someone Plz Help!!!!!!!!

[timjoler]

Ive got a v5 ps2 w/NEO 2.2 installed by the guy i bought it off.
DVD REGION X without the dongle.... ie new version
The problem is I cant get the EA method to work. I hold reset for 5 seconds but the tray doesnt open automatically for some reason. I hold eject for 5 seconds........ nothing. Normal PSX and PS2 backups work fine. Only EA ones causing probs especially NHL 2002.

CAN SOMEONE PLZ HELP!!!!!!!!

thanx

p.s. wots all this about holding L1 + O + triangle ..........etc

does it concern me???

pps
I tried patching the stupid backup, but the disc never had a .cue or .bin file. Not even a .img file!!!!!!
could this b the problem????
