In the beginning i chipped w/ a magic 3.
After a few months of play i got sick of standby, rebooting when the browser appeared, and freezing.
read all the great stuff about the messiah 2, bought it, sent it to bill and..................
5 days later i am playing splinter cell flawlwssly on a ps2 that boots all my games like they were originals

The messiah 2 pro is great and so is bill@ freedomlives.com

That is exactly why everyone recommends Bill and a messiah 2.

Glad it worked out for you.

This is wierd. I tried to play world series baseball 2k3 and it kept going to the memory card screen and id click the ps2 disk and it would go right back to the same screen. I backed it up again and it works fine. It also worked fine on my magic 3

WHY??????????

Bad burn.

This is a symptom of bad laser or bad media.

What version PS2 do u have and what media r u using to burn to.

Both my ps2's are v7. The one with the magic 3 played the game fine but when i inserted it into my brand new v7 that was just chipped w/ messiah 2 pro 1.30 the game wouldnt play. Both backups were on riteks.

The one that wouldnt boot was given to my brother cause he has my second ps2 w/magic 3. it still works for him but not me. I took his v7 ps2 to put another messiah 2 in it.

F#$@ the magic 3. Its his problem now. hes just happy he got to trade his unmodded system for my mooded one.

v7s have always had the characteristic that in my experience that 10 or 15% lasers needed Azimuth Adjustment. They'd been set by Sony just at the lower range for pressed disks but the lower reflectivity burned disks just wouldn't load.

Ive had no problem with any other ps2 or ps1 backups......just that one. Oh well.

Even my princo backups load flawlessly.
