    Hi guys.. i'm trying to put a hd-7 into my v4 ps2

    Its struggling to play anything at the moment... wont do dvdr.. cdr.. original dvd.. does original audio cd

    I've made a cdr of the lenschanger iso and it tries to boot i think.. but i end up with the word playstation in middle of the screen and SCEE at the bottom and there it hangs? is this the start of the disc loading and crashing or just an error that it cant load the cdr ?

    any help is appreciated

    thanks in advance


    ps i've searched but to no avail.. and sorry if i've posted in wrong section

    1. if you have a chip look if it has dev 1/2 and boot the elf
    2. see if psx games boot (most worn lasers still play them) if so you can boot the elf through the exploit

    Yep deffo a v8 mate or a v7

    model number SCPH-39003

    Still cant find anyway to get this lenschanger to boot with the existing 400b drive in... i think it loads the cd (gets playstation logo then SCEE and hangs) but then crashes.. read a few posts on here saying lenschanger software crashes on some modchips.. mines the original messiah 2 i think...

    I've got no network adapter... I havent got the special ps2 usb lead (pl2301 - pl2303 ... i think it called) .. Am i out of options ?

    thx in advance ...

    ps i aint got much hair left

    have you actually tried booting the lenschanger disc with the new laser in, sometimes it will read cd and not dvd or other way round before using lenschanger.
    cheers

    or make sure the resistor is on the lower 2 points and not the top ones and then the hd7 should work
