try defragmenting your hard drive to see if it works.

just defragmented the whole HDD with windows 7 defragmenter and the recommended OpenPS2Loader Defragmenter, still white screen, tested with MGS2

If any part of the game is still fragmented it will not run the game

Try to analyze the HD with defragment if any show fragmentation then get a good program to move them around to get rid of fragmentation.

Or you can use this to try to play your game

is it better to fragment all the game datas or the whole hdd?

will try the PS2ESDL tomorrow THX

If any of the game data is fragmented OPL will refuse to run that game

So at least that game must have no fragmentation

not trying to hijack a thread or something, i also have the white screen.

after a format I created a CD and a DVD folder and put the gameiso in the dvd folder
Could fragmentation still be an issue then ?

For OPL on USB the games must be defragmented that is a must sorry that is the way the OPL is designed and white screen is the debug color for user
error. That is look for something you should have done to get OPL running correctly

is it the same for network games ??

I mean i made a partition on an internal harddrive with folders CD and DVD. i put my iso in the dvd folder and connected my ps2 to my router. In opl the games shows up.

Can an .iso be defragmented as well ???

Sorry

only trying it for a few days after softmodding my ps2 ...

Well network games don't need to be deframented but something is wrong in your setup like not correct shares for all folders

Bye the way DVD and CD folders have to be in a folder named PS2SMB or what ever you made it in setting in OPL
