Problem Upgrading v1.39 Matrix Homebrew?

Hi, i just got done doing install on PS2 v7 with a Matrix Homebrew chip, now i'm trying to flash the chip with v1.39 so that i could play backups and originals. But i keep getting same programing screen over and over...OK...let me explain...I put the upgrade cd in i get the upgrade screen then it wants me to press start to upgrade to v1.39, but i keep coming back to same screen, it never says that it is succefull or finished and YES i did check no it did not upgrade but i'm seeing it has v1.33 already installed i think...Please help would be great ! ! !

yeah might as well upgrade. Go on www.infinitymods.com download the update burn it to cd and put it in your ps2 works a treat. Do you own a proper infinity or the modbo caus modbos are flashed with 1.33 bios just double checking before you did try and flash the ps2 chip!

well i just emailed foundmy.com to see what they have to say about this, bcuz really i bought this for its reputation in the market and not to metion the features it has...so can anyone else confirm this chip as clone, looks like exact thing as on the infinity website, but this has firmware v1.33 which is no where to be found on the infinty official website...

Me too

I had the same problem and I also purchased the chip from same place. It was matrix infinity and I don't belive it was homebrew. I ended up mailing deck to spedmetal and letting him do the install. Spedmetal remember the blue deck a few weeks back? Ask spedmetal he may know.
