    Hi. I've got a question. I was wondering if I could get a recommendation about what modchip I should purchase. It would have to do the following things...

    • Be able to use Gameshark/Codebreaker/AR Max, and swap directly to a backup cd
    • Not need to use a slide card, just hit the eject button and go
    • Be able to recognise any media I put in the PS2, whether it be backed up PS1 games, backed up PS2 games (cd or dvd), and data disks (like with emulator roms on it or whatever)


    I've already got my v7 NTSC system softmodded (ps1 disc exploit), but I currently have to use a slide card to swap the disks and stuff. I just basically want to be able to put a backed up PS2 or PS1 game in my machine and be able to play it, or boot to uLaunchELF. Also, if possible, I'd like to get one with that ATAD patching stuff, so my non$ony hdd is seen as a factory one and be able to do different stuff with that...

    Any suggestions? I'm pretty good at soldering (I fix electronics in my spare time), so that shouldn't be a problem. I was thinking about going for one of those DMS4 pro chips, but I don't know if they allow you to just use the eject button as you would a regular PS2.

    Thanks for any info,
    Model: NTSC SCPH-39001/R (think it's a v7)
    Mod: PS1 Exploit Softmod
    Harddrive: Internal 40GB Seagate ST340810A
    External drive: Apple iPod (in Disk Mode)

    Sounds like you need the Matrix Infinity.

    yeah go with the matrix infinity. Its a bit cheaper than the dms4 and has all the features you want. You can get one for $31+shipping from gamecubesux. Or if you are low on cash go with the modbo 745. a matrix clone. it has all features of the matrix just you can't upgrade the firmware. but if you can afford 31 buks than go with matrix.
