ThugFxp · #1 01-01-2003, 04:15

i have just purchased a non solder chip. for my V4 psx2
only becasue the warranty has just run out !! hehehe

Now it is installed. i have tried backups of the following games.

Rocky
SSX Tricky
Virtual Tennis
Gumball 3000

Non of these games work at all.

Rocky boots as far as the title screen then locks up. smae with Virtual Tennis, the other 2 dont een begin to work.

I have heard that these non solder chips will only work on games under 650mb ??? is this true.
Have i been had.

Should i remove the chip and buy a messiah.
Any help would be greatly appreciated
Many thanks in advance

I just installed a no solder chip with swap discs in my brother in laws ver.7 PS2. It doesnt have any problems booting any game.

just a thought would it be that i am using AR2 to boot the game. As i know there are other more reliable ways of booting PSX2 and swapping cd`s.

I think you need to visit this site

You need to patch certain games because their TOC (Table Of Contents) is too big
