FMCB 1.5 USB problems

[bootsector]

Sure bro,

I got this from one of gamidi's posts itself. But I am reposting so people with this issue can find it here. First u can try with only the USBM.IRX alone, it it still doesnt work, try using both USBD.IRX and USBM.IRX .

Thank you VERY MUCH, coolan!

Worked great with my 4GB Kingston (that purple one)

Best regards,

Always glad to help .

I have a kingston 2GB ( green one) that works with the default driver and searched all shops here for 4GB or 8GB kingston. Out of luck. So I had to be satisfied with a transcend 8GB. That didnt have any issues.

I wonder where jimmy is last time he logged in was 10 days back. Maybe on a vacation .

Its nice to see that someone makes use of the drivers . But as a warning, these drivers allow my flashdrive to work only on readonly mode,which means i cant backup my memcard contents on it or delete files from it while im using it on the ps2. But running elfs,songs,movies,games(USBAdvance),copying files to memcard and other stuff works fine. If someone knows of a place where i can find various usb drivers to experiment and hopefully unlock writing please let me know.

Hmm...

bootsector,

u too face this problem?

@gamidi:
I would recommend checking out the SMS threads because I have seen many usb drivers posted there. Also u can ask EEUG. He will surely be having a few compatible ones

@dlanor:

Do u know why some usb drivers work and other dont? Is it something related to the formatting or is it something else? My knowledge of these things are a bit dusty .

[gamidi]

All right i searched a bit in the forums and found the drivers. They are in this thread: http://psx-scene.com/forums/official...ort-files.html attached in the fifth post. Note that sms will not work with these drivers.They are for use only in ulaunchelf,for other apps the drivers coolaan posted do the job fine. The first and the second one from the package work fine with my kingston with full read/write access. The third and fourth dont work and freeze my console when i try to access mass. Thank you very much dlanor!

@dlanor:

Not really. I suspect that they vary in the implementation of the protocol, but I don't know the details.

Is it something related to the formatting or is it something else?

I always format them the same way, using ul_format from the USBAdvance release. So it has to be due to something other than the formatting when some drives only work with specific drivers, while other drives demand other drivers.

My knowledge of these things are a bit dusty .

Unfortunately, so is mine. (Not just dusty, but also scant. )

Thanks dlanor for the info. I tried to understand the usb h/w suff and all a few years back ....

Anyway I didnt get a chance to tell this before. U guys are doing heck of a job with ULE. keep it up. For me the 4 most important things are in PS2 are FMCB,ULE,SMS and ESR. Even though I have a modded console, I just love to play my backups with ESR .
