Are they chipped? What happens when you press X with the gold disk selected?

[stevenf]

I already modified them and even now when I took out the modchip, still cant load and screen only show gold disc.
When I press X it went blank then turn back to gold disc again.

Pls anyone out there ???

i'm having the same problem after trying to mod a v9 with a matrix infinity.
removed chip and same thing. cleaned various points i touched with a braid and can't find any splashes. same result.

bods V9 - check the fuses, there should be no resistance across them. All fuses are labelled on the mobo with labels like ps1 or ps14... usually an arrow pointing at 'em

[bodhisattva]

All my fuses are good to go. Any thing else I should check?

The gold disk is usual problem in v9-v10.
Make this .
Try to take +Vcc from PS14.
Use fat wires for +Vcc and GND.
Use fat wire for Y.
And Try to make short and DON crossing the bios and cd/dvd controler wires.

I am having the same problem with a v10 install showing the gold disk for PS2 originals/backups. I dont understand what you are suggesting to do Thanks for your help.
