    Ok, but uLaunchELF is NOT built into the PS2 BIOS, so you must be using something else to get uLaunchELF to boot up to begin with.

    ALL bootup details are relevant here, as some of them can interfere with proper operation of USBAdvance.

    For example, the so-called 'Macrovision Fix' of the Matrix Infinity mod-chip, and all clones of that chip, will make it impossible to use USBAdvance, resulting always in a black screen such as you describe. And since that fix is ON by default, all users of such chips will get that symptom when they first try USBAdvance.

    Trying to turn such a fix OFF will work fine only if your chip is a genuine MI, but for clones the very attempt to change any setting will permanently kill the chip.
