Do Psx games load as normal or do you have to press and hold reset for 3 sec?

You did! Whatever for? I dont see why people still buy that chip. It was one of the worst versions they made.

Assuming the PS2 backups are of quality ( Proven to work). I would check for a crossed wire or a dry soldered wire.Btw, TD is correct, The magic 3 chips did have a few bugs and are outdated, You may want to update to a DUO, very reliable and cheap

Are your wires too long or something? Sometimes a shorter wire works better than a really long wire.
