    I backed up a ton of my games and used usbtil v2 to install them on my 80gb external hd but metal gear solid 2 sons of liberty wont work i get the colours then i get the black screen as if its about to start and then nothing it stays that way.

    Metal gear solid 3 snake eater runs fine so do all my other games.

    I also backed up an old game i found that only worked on my friends ps2 because it is NTSC it is called Deus Ex - The Conspiracy, i thought it wouldnt matter about the region with fmcb and OPL but this game is not running either, i get the colours and then it stays white screen.

    My tv supports both 50Hz pal and 60Hz so i dont know what the problem is, any help anyone can provide id appreciate it.

    Zero fragmentation on my hdd.

    After playing metal gear solid 3 snake eater for a while iv noticed alot of issues, it will freeze sometimes if i die, it also freezes sometimes after a call has ended or a cutscene.

    I also got this disk read freeze bit while playing like when the laser cant read the disk and it freezes then it continued then it froze again and i had to restart, really annopying because im playing on Hard and well its hard so i keep restarting from my last save.

    I finished MGS3 Snake Eater two months ago without a single freeze along the way. I use OPL with SMB.
    PS2 Slim SCPH-77004 with FMCB 1.8
    (Modded with Matrix Infinity)
    Running OPL 0.8
    SMB w/ crossed cable in Windows XP with a computer dedicated to only PS2-loading.
    HDD: Samsung G3 1TB
    TOTALLY LAG FREE - BOTH IN-GAME AND FMV.

    Well i havnt been able to play it properly using OPL and it even says on the OPL compatability thread that it has some issues with this game, anyway i tried PS2ESDL last night and i played the game perfectly no issues.

    However i still cannot get metal gear solid 2 to run on any usb loader, it just goes to a black screen, im not sure if maybe the backup i created is bad or something?

    Might as well try a beta-revision, if you can compile them.
