Messiah Chip for V3 PS2

SimonBradley · #1 12-03-2002, 13:36

Has anyone managed to successfully chip a PS2 V3 with a Messiah/Clone Chip?

I took a look at it the other day and after seeing how close the points are decided not to bother doing it myself.
If it is possible I will find someone who is shit hot at soldering to do the job for me.

Thanks

Sim,

My famous "mate round the corner" has done two. The laser's a total bugger though as I've described in a recent post. Whoever chips yours could face the same challenge - hours of re-calibration.

Anyway you know my number if you want to talk about this.

Keep well

I've done about 10 v3's so far.
it seems to be the one that people have to shop around to find a installer for.

Works fine with DVD-R I just can't be bothered anymore doing disc swap. Are there any PS2 V3 Messiah fitters in the North West I live near Manchester.

Thanks

Bowlers is where I got the PS2 from in the first place.
They don't do the Messiah yet though!
