Magic V Test Results

[jmj2500]

Finally. I have my newly modified Magic V V7 NTSC U/C PS2 back. Here are my test results.

Installation: I had a professional installer do my installation. The only problem we had is that the "r"wire must be away from all the other wires. We had to run it down the edge of the board and tape it.

PS2 Games:
Originals of Grand Turismo 2 Jap and Zone of The Enders US were tested and worked properly. Backups of Baldurs Gate: Dark Alliance, Time Splitters 2, GameShark V3, Dance Dance Revolution 7th Mix Dvd Rip.

All games were tested by booting them 4-5 times each. Each game booted perfectly everytime with no hassels.


PS1 Games:
Originals of Final Fantasty Anthology, Gameshark V5, Final Fantasy Chronicles, Final Fantasy IX and Mega Man X 4-6 US were tested and were working properly. Backups of Final Fantasy Origins, Dance Dance Revolution 5th Mix, and Mega Man 8 were tested and working properly.

All games were tested by booting them 4-5 times each. Each Game booted first time, everytime. One minor thing though. PS1/Dvd mode took some timing to get right. You cant just hold it until the blue light instantly comes on anymore, have have to hold it a split sedond longer to get it to boot PS1 and Dvd movies and games.


DvD Movies:

I didnt have time to test any DVD Movies. But if you are gonna watch a Dvd on your PS2, Its better to just turn the chip off


Overall Results:

This chip seems to be on Par with the M2. Every game tested worked great and booted the first time everytime. I am very satisfied.
