The SBox modchip???

[BootyDaddy]

Hi all!!! For someone that doesn't think they're up to soder the 20+ points as needed for the Messiah 2 mod chip, how about the SBox fix? (more info on it at:
http://www.modchip-sbox.com/ps2sbox.html )
Has anybody used the SBox? What about it's ease of use? Thanks for all the info!!! Just wanting to get the right thing the first time.
Again Thanks!!!

The mod you're talking about is a very early mod for the ps2.
You can also tell this by this comment from the site

This is the newest version of SBox, it will supports the new PS2 R Type consoles (SCPH3000XR). It's the ultimate solution for ALL PS2.

The model they're talking about is a version 5 and it certainly aint the new boy on the block anymore. The version 7 is.

Now this mod STILL requires you to solder 1 wire and i personally would tell you to steer well away from it.

If you want to do a simple install yourself then go for the No solder modchip with swap magic 2 disks (Note this doesn't play every dvdr game. 5 or 6 to date don't work > Look for one of my older posts that has a list of tested games by myself).

But personally you can't get any better than getting a professional to do a messiah 2 install. It may be more costly when you have to pay for installation as well but many places give a guarentee on the work and it's much more efficient than the above mods.

Hope this helps,
