I agree with most of the user, the installation pictures can be deceiving, I remember when I receive the chip on mail.. can't believe how small it is, and by the time I opened the PS2, the legs on the chips are very tiny there's not much space for mistakes....

just be carefull or you're going to break your PS2

I just use an old 25W soldering iron, I know it's probably a tad hot for doing modchip installs, but I've never had a problem. I've done original Playstations, Dreamcasts, heaps of Xboxes, a couple PS2's and a couple of Neogeo AES's.

The tip I use is just an old tip that I stuck on the grinder to make a very fine point in order to do the PS2's.

I'll have to get a new iron one of these days

But yeah, take your time with your PS2, it's not as easy as it looks, especially for novices.
