DMS3 ModChip

Chris174 · #1 02-05-2003, 15:57

Anyone used this mod chip before?

Reading what it says on easybuy2000 it looks an ok mod chip.

Wondering if anyone has used it

EDIT: Just read Charlies post and he gave it 9 and a half rating.
Still would like to know what others think though

If you got the cash, why not get it?

Its got all the extra features and stuff like that

If you dont care about extra features and just want a good reliable modchip then get a Messiah 2 Pro.

Its really down to your choice

I would say that if you want to save about $30, really don't care about being able to boot PS2Reality(a divx player for PS2) from the memory card, and don't care about having macrovision disabled then go with the messiah 2. DMS3 is just a nice toy that works well. Messiah 2 has been proven to be the most reliable chip out there. I by no means am being negative to the DMS3. Its just not really worth the extra money to most people.

the dms3 v1 had many bugs,2 months later i still await the v2 replacement

so does charlie,his 9 1/2 is based on what other people say and the fact that ,he goot many complaints and bitches if he mentions dms3 vs the messiah2

Version 2.0 is out dust.

Ok, i think i would rather have the extra cash in my pocket so i'll get a messiah 2 chip instead.

Thanks anyway

never is it really

as i said i await my replacement,for some strange reason its still doesnt arrive

i not buying another

Chris174 · #8 03-05-2003, 03:06

hmmm, So it could still have a few problems even in the version 2

I think i'll go with the messiah 2 but i just don't have £250 yet and i don't want to try do it myself because i might mess it up.

Is it easy to install them? Well to solder them i mean.

And if i put it in the ps2 i have now would i have to do anything with the laser?

It ain't easy to solder in a mod.
If you have no experience is modding, don't try and install. Unless you are willing to reck your ps2.

Get a pro to install it and you won't have any problems.

I have not been able to check out the DMS3 with many of the games that it failed for Charlie_PS2. It does boot GTA3, Xenosaga, anything that I have stuck in it so far. I have not tried it with anti-mod games, because I di not have any. Also it passes a game for booting a bit faster than my Messiah 2 did. I also checked it out with Splinter Cell and it works 100%.

the mod chip wont hurt the laser, but if you have a version 2, i doubt putting a Messiah 2 in it would be a good idea.

get a new V7 if you can, pre-installed by someone...

Rox, this is the only spot that I can see where you would get that he had a version 2 PS2. I believe that what he means here is problems is the version 2 DMS3.

Chris174 · #13 04-05-2003, 03:42

Yes sorry i should explain myself a little better, Anyway what happened to the topic where i could find out which version my ps2 is?

I can't seem to see it on here any more.

bighap · #14 04-05-2003, 05:28

Chris174 · #15 05-05-2003, 06:38
