I'm not sure thats what he is asking, I think he just wants to use a chipped (any chip) V7 to load the flash upgrade to the memory card, then upgrade the Infinity with it in his V12.

I dont see why this wouldnt work, give it a try and let us know.

Exactly! I don't want to flash my mates Magic chip, all I want to do is stick the program onto the memory card.

The reason I'm asking this is because in the txt file that comes with the 1.36 firmware it asks what is needed : "a PS2 V1-V11 with Infinity inside to prepare the Memory Card Upgrade." That sorta got me concerned.

There's a local place that sells the Matrix, but they've advised me it doesn't have the newest flash and I want to make sure I can do it myself otherwise there's AUD$100 down the drain.

The ones compatible with the V12s (preflashed with 1.36) have a blue dot on the Actel chip

that's not what he means lufcfan
he has a v12 pstwo, and he wants to get a chip in it, but he want the firmware of that chip to 1.36
his shop only sells not-upgraded matrix infinities, so he needs to have the firmware stuff on a memory card.
he was wondering, if he could use his FRIEND's ps2, modded with a magic chip, to put the firmware on the memory card, and then use that memory card to flash his matrix infinity in his own pstwo.

as for the question, i don't know if it's possible, but you could try to put the firmware on the memory card before buying the chip. if it appears on the memory card, then i guess it's working. So, like spedmetal said, give it a try (and tell us if it works or not)

That works on xbox, my friend chipped his xbox and flash the 'xbox bios' then sold the chip. He put the chips bios on the actual xbox, so he got some money back, lol

lol, funny :P it's not really the same as what terry wants though...

btw, i don't think that that's possbile for the ps2, cuz the chip needs some input/output to some other hardware too (joypad, reset button) that i think the ps2 bios cant access directly. the chips for the ps2 aren't just an addon to the bios, like (i guess) the xbox chips
