Help reqd for modding slimline PS2 V14 (SCHP 75001)

[Jay_83]

You need the magic key 2 tools in order to make the ps2 think the drive is closed all the time, basically so that the disc will spin with the drive open.

Once you've got these in place (Only have to do once and piss easy to put in, no breaking of any parts and no breaking of the warrenty sticker) simply put in the swap magic disc, let it load, take out the swap magic and put the backup in. Press any button and thats it.

There are a very small amount of games that don't work with swap magic 3.6 and for the ones that don't easy workarounds are available.

If you're looking for an easier life with a pretty much guarenteed 100% success rate you'l be better off with a modchip.

Thanks Warlock & Jay_83 for ur responses.

Jay_83, I have one more query for u... are magic key 2 tools same as "PlayStation 2 PSTwo Slim Line Flip Top Cover" product which is mentioned in the link I put in my original post at the top? Do you think it does the same job as magic key tools?

Thanks.

[Jay_83]

Basically the flip-top does the same job as the tools, ie makes the pstwo think the drive's shut all the time but to be honest it's a complete waste of money.

To use the flip top you'l need to break your warrenty sticker rendering any warrenty (or all of it seeing as it's a v14) useless.

The tools do the exact same job, but are neater, and you won't lose your warrenty (Which is the whole idea of swap magic in the first place)

Thanks Jay... by any chance do you know of any other tools that can be used with swap magic and won't break the warranty of my PS2? Or can you direct me to a web site where I can find such kind of tools?

No other tool can be used with the new V14 as of yet apart from magic keys 2. Do a google for them

Are you really that concerned about the void sticker? Rip that thing off, shred it up, crumple it into a ball and bounce it off the cats forehead and wait for a mod chip to be released that works in the V14.
