Random Mod Chip ?'s from a Newbie

[mojo2185]

Thanks for the quick reply.

As far as my CD-RW drive goes... all properties says is
Manufacturer: (Standard CD-ROM drives)... I'm running Windows XP Pro, and it doesn't say anywhere else who it's made by.

It looks like i'll be getting a new CD-RW drive and DVD-R (the Yamaha 2200 CD-RW, and one of the Pioneer DVD-R drives), as soon as i come up with some money, and i find where to purchase them.

Can you either post here, or private message me your price for a Messiah 2?

Bill's the guy in chicago? Does he have an email address?

A final note:
I can't fully commit to buying a chip, or getting this stuff done, because i don't actually own the PS2, my younger brother does. I REALLY think it's a good idea to do this though (especially with our destructive dogs who eat EVERYTHING). Convincing him shouldn't be too hard.

EDIT: How do i figure out what type of PS2 i have? something with the serial number?

Thanks a ton!
