2. I have Shared my HDD with the name PS2 SMB

3. Gave Ip Adress setting to both PC and Ps2

4. When Using Ulaunch Elf when i open PS2NET option then it shows my IP adress on ULAUNCHELF but then too my network icon turns YELLOW

5. When i use OPL after connecting my ps2 then nothing happens in OPL and on pc side the network icon turns RED CROSS
when i connect my PS2 with CROSSOVER CABLE, then nothing happens means i m using wnidows 7 and my network option on the system tray turns into a cross

Please Help Me WITH IT!!!!!


i followed the following tutorial
[How To] Boot Games Off Network (SMB) With Playstation 2 (PS2) Using OpenPS2Loader (A Novice Guide) « Welcome to the Underground.

I have read the tut..... There is a little mistake.....

If you using x-over-cable, Check your IP´s.
When you give your PC an IP with 192.168.0.2, then your settings in OPL must show this.....

- PS2 –

IP: 192.168.0.10

MASK: 255.255.255.0

GW: 192.168.0.2 ----> and NOT 192.168.0.1 how the TUT shows......

- PC -

IP: 192.168.0.2

PORT: 445

SHARE NAME: PS2SMB

And check that your share-name has no free spaces. You write "PS2 SMB" rename it to "PS2SMB"

And dont forget.....
In the root of your share-folder you can only put games in .UL Format (USBUtil or USBExtreme - Format).
If you have iso´s you must rename the iso to OPL-format, make subfolders in your share-folder (CD - folder for CD-games, DVD - folder for DVD-games)

I'm not sure what you are referring to with your yellow colours and red crossings, but to me it sounds as if you have a firewall that blocks all PS2 traffic.
If so then you must either deactivate it or somehow convince it to accept the PS2 as a valid networking partner, allowed to transfer stuff to and from your PC.

he means icon in the task bar it means that PC doesn't detect your PS2 i had the same problem i solved it by connecting PS2 to a diffrent PC netwrok adapter since i have 2, 1 for NET, 2 for FTP PS3 i OPL PS2, and just like in your case the first adapter didn't detect PS2 conection but the second did
