Matrix 2 v10, problem playing ps2 games

[-={Nexus}=-]

so,

i thought this would have been my best install, it was all so clean,

i'm going to get a pic up asap so you guys can tell me if i did something wrong, but bascially, i tested out a psx game, and it worked, but when i tried playing a backed up ps2 game, it would recognize the disk, i would hit X for enter and then it would go black screen, and back to the same screen saying "ps2 disk recognized" but no game loading...

anyone know what's wrong?
am i doing something wrong, i dont 'even know if i backed upt he game properly,

i was backing up ICO, a cd-r game to another cd-r, used nero burining rom and copied cd on the fly...

arghhh.
frustrated

1. Change location of MXL in board. ( i use the old location of BIOS with B,I,Y in up side
2.Use fat wires for GND , +Vcc , Y.
3.Bios wires DON'T crossing .

Thats all

here's the best camera i got, sorry it's blurry, notice where my Y is and where my A is, is that oh k?

i'm going to change A to the Chip legs and make Y a fatter wire. i hope that will help it..

if you have any more advice PLEASE let me know!


thnx

so you cant boot a ps2 cd-r game?
do dvd-r's work? can you get a known working backup to boot on your console?
if it shows up on the browser screen and doesnt show the rsod, doesnt that mean the chip did its job?

correct,

i actually dont' have any dvd-r games and haven't tried that,

hummm

i'm really not wanting to change the position of the modchip.

i thought it might have been the tops of the solder points being grounded by the metal shielding that sits over it so i put hot glue over all the solder connections,

still same problem,

hummmmmmmmmmmmm

alright, well tonight i'll move the chip to where you say villasg.

i hope it works.

will keep you updated.

hey villas g, so now my chip leg wires (BIOS wires?) will be longer.. will that be a problem? they can't cross over anything and should be laid flat agains the mobo correct?


here's a pic adding on to yours
