This is a call for any repairmen/woman out there willing to work on a non-working PS2.
Playstation 2 Fatboy
Version:SCPH-5001 Version 9/10
Modchip Installed:Matrix Infinity (Pretty Sure it is not a clone)
Modchip Installation:I did not install it I sent it out to some Luigi similar like avatar name, guy from out of state.
Hard Drive: Maxtor 200GB
Software Used: Independent Exploit 3.4 w/HD Loader loaded from a CD
Issue: I travel by car alot from Orlando to South FL. And I carry my PS2 with me using a specialty bag I got from Gamestop. After one of my trips I noticed that the PS2 was not able to play my Backup PSX/PS2 Games and not able to run the Exploit CD. However it was able to play Original PSX/PS2 games.I thought maybe one of the wires inside might have came undone. So I went ahead and opened up the PS2 and tried to see if I could resolder the wire that probably came undone back to the motherboard. I came across some problems
*I chipped some of the plastic on the Fan Header Plug
*I cleaned the Laser Lens which maybe the reason it wont read anything now
*Was not able to remove one of the precision screws on the Main Shield holding the motherboard down
I tried to put everything back 2gether but the problem got worse. It was able to power on and no noises I could hear but now it won't read anything at all CD/DVD's nothing just sits there acting like its trying to read the disc
Help Please Help Please
Let me know if anyone on here can:
*Diagnose this problem
*Resolder the Modchip if necessary
*Execute a simpler method for me to run my Backups without loading from a Exploit Cd everytime
If so I pay well with Paypal or Money Order :D
