Action Replay 2 Not Working

[Mr Slippy]

I have a No Solder Mod Chip in a V5 PS2. I am having trouble getting the latest versions of the AR2 cartridges to boot DVD-R games. The versions I have tried are 2.30 and 2.33 these both dont seem to work.

When I get the updating code list message and go to swap the original for a backup the original is still spinning and subsequently the backup does not boot.

Earlier versions are fine my old one was 2.07 and I have used 2.11..

Has anyone else come across this? And is there another booting method that works?

Thanks
