Yep.... And the Magic 2 has some problems....
Read Charlie_PS2's post about some of the problems found with the Magic 2. Magic 2 results...
This is just some of the problems... I have read on other forums about other problems with compatibility....

I would personally stay with the Messiah 2...

Should of Researched or waited till the Messiah 2 came out.
Magic2 isn't such a bad chip although it some flaws but over all Good although not great as Messiah 2 is..

I agree.

At $35 Magic 2 is not bad value and will do most of what you want. If it's a clone, then you cant use Gameshark codes with backups; you can't load DVD9 games except behind Gameshark with Magic 2. Otherwise it's a credible no swap chip. Keep it and use it.

BG You are right about the messiah 2 being better. But not ALL Magic 2 chips have problems. Just more Magic 2 Chips have problems than messiah 2.
