    Inconsistent bootup behavior is mostly due to hardware problems of some kind.

    Like TnA was 'fishing' for info on, the MC itself can often be a cause of this, if it is a cheap Chinese clone unit.
    But it can also be something almost purely mechanical, such as a poor fit/alignment of the PS2 MC port connectors.
    That can mess things up (bad signal impedance etc) so as to produce erratic results even with perfect original MCs.

    And whenever a modchip is involved, it has to take on the role of prime suspect of all abnormal behavior.
    Not just the modchip itself and its quality, but also the quality of the modchip installation work.
    Even perfectly soldered connections don't help, if the leads are a little too long and routed near unsuitable signals in the console.
    Because at high frequencies signals don't stick to metal paths alone. They can also spread through air or empty space.
    That is how all radio transmission works after all, but for unwanted spreading in electronic equipment it is called 'crosstalk'.

    So there are tons of different possible reasons for your inconsistent results, and you are the only one available to test anything.
    We are reduced to blind guesswork and suggestions...
