Never mind the "power of the Playstation".

What about the "power of the Forum"?!

Is the Forum with you or what - where other forums have gone to ludwig this Forum gathers strength. AshestoAshes (he's not a member yet) and Dust2Dust (he is) DAL SIMply no better forum, NightstalkerNightstalker.

I have a question regarding the AR2 then...

I have the AR2v2 together with the NEO2.5DVD-R. Okay, I understand I wont be able to boot DVD-R's unless I use the 1.9 or 1.7. But, I could not find the 1.7/1.9 at all. Can I just download an image of the 1.9/1.7 from the net, burn it and use it? will the PS2 accept it? or I need to get an original disk? or it is related to the AR2 card itself?

Can I use RegionX in order to boot DVD-R's?

Thanks,

Oren M.

No you need GS2/1.9 ot AR2/1.7

I've not got the URL immediately to hand but if you search the Forum on PrimoDVD, one of my posts contains a URL with the word PACIFIC in ite. That's got those downloads for you to burn with CDRWin.

You boot AR2/1.7 as a backup behind AR2/1.x or DVDR-X for that matter!

Thanks much Charlie!
I got da site and currently downloading the AR1.7.

Just to make sure I understand it properly, after I burn the AR17 image on a CD, I should load it using my AR2v2 just as I load a regular CD backup, and then use it to swap DVD-R?

Thanks again,

OM.
