Desperate help - messiah 2

dude2 · #1 09-02-2003, 06:47

Hey,

i recently got my ps2 chipped (v3) with a messiah 2. I got it back and it wasnt working well so i sent it back and have just got it back again. I am having major problems with it and have spent too much money so i need help!

When you press the reset button to turn it on, often the eject button wont turn on at all and the ps2 wont turn on. There is a clear difference in noise when it turns on as normal and when it doesnt work. The green light stays on but the screen flicks black then it resturns to as if it was turned off.

Occasionally it works, when i start playing the game it suddenly decides to power off. It also power offs when you put in a memory card etc whilst the ps2 is on.

It gets worst and worst so you have to leave it for ages until you try it again. I dont know what to do. Any suggesitons?

PLEASE HELP!

Jonny

That is not normal m8 & def needs to go back to ur chipper!

When you say you have spent too much money, have you bought it by post? If so a lil bit of postie ruff & tumble is probably the cause!

Could be wires touching because they aren't gklued down. So they flex and the soldered ends touch each other ow and again depending on the weather - sort of thing.

It''ll be a bad install or damage intransit as Yorkie said.

mrmodchips, im not sending it back, i have sent it to him 2wice and it was as if he had done nothing extra, no tests or anything.

Ive spent neally £150 on it. Is anyone willing to kind of part exchange my ps2 so if i buy a new one it wont be the full £270?

I really wish i had of looked around more before i chose to chip it with mrmodchips! a lesson learned! My ps2 could be used for spares or something!

Don't worry m8 ur not the first to fall for him (or his m8s).

From the probs u have described I don't think ur PS2 is fubar, it just needs a lil bit of attention. Tell us where you are in the UK & we'll put you in touch with somebody locally who you can trust.

not alot without knowing what is wrong

your best bet is make a journey to norwich(arrange it with me),bring your ps2 i take look most likely a quick repair on the install £20

if ps2 is gone then we can sort something out

without seeing ps2 boxed as new v7 all leads and u leave the messiah 2 in there, plus £170 i chip u a new ps2 with m2 pro you pick up norwich or plus £20 nextday insured postage

I hate giving Dust a hard time especially when he is being so kind to you!

But if you're in Surrey and I and my famous mate round the corner are in Berkshire and Dust is in effing Norwich it's a no brainer!

Hull_chipper · #14 10-02-2003, 16:58

So wot are you tryin to say Charlie?
