PSX boot-disc for PS2?

[TylerDurden]

I think every chip has had the ability to boot ps1 games on a ps2. Give us some details as to what you got. Like what version ps2. When you bought it and when it was chipped. How do you boot your ps2 backups. And so on.

Okay. I bought my PlayStation 2 for about 4 - 5 months ago. They version is SCPH-5004. The mod-chip was installed for about 2 - 3 months ago, so it's still pretty new.
The game I tested, was burnt using Alcohol 120% with "Datatype" set to "PlayStation" and the speed was set pretty low. The medium was Memorex 700 MB.
For the method, here is what the instructions say:
"Put the game disc into the console, and hold the Reset-button until the console 'turns off'. Then hold down the Reset-button once more, for about 2 - 3 seconds, until the Eject-button turns blue."

If I just had put the game-disc into the console without using this method, it would just show the memory-card (so at least the method works.. halfway, so to say).

I recently sended an e-mail to the store, so I hope I might can get more info.

Seeing you have a fairly new xbox you probably have a v9 or v10. Just about any of the chips that work with them should allow the play of ps1 games as well.

So tell me what happens after you hold the reset button till the eject light turns blue?

A lot of the V9 and V10 chips actually use the eject button to set them different modes. If holding reset until the eject light doesn’t work, try holding eject until the blue light on the eject button comes on.

Yep, i made the same mistake with the first v9/v10 consoles i modded, the console would turn off when holding reset so the functions was swaped to the eject button.

TylerDurden:

When I follow the instructions, the screen turns black. The screen will flicker a few times - as it normaly do when I start PS2-games - but then nothing happens. The little lamp on the control doesn't turn on, as it otherwise do.

Everyone else:

Really? Hmm, let's see then. First, after putting in the CD, I will hold the Reset-button till the PS2 goes into Standby. Then, I will hold the Eject-button till the Eject-button turns blue?
I tested it, but what only happened was that the CD-tray opened up. Did I do something wrong now?

Seems very odd to me. Is there any way you can open your ps2 up and see what kinda mod you have in it? Or even better take a pic of it and get in touch with me via AIM?
