psx games shake screen on ps2

**Rip-the-Jacker** · 12-08-2003,04:13 AM

whenever i load psx games on my ps2 they work correctly but the screen jumps up and down, very annoying sometimes. its a v5 or 6 ps2. all regular ps2 games work correctly except these original psx games. any ideas?

what chip are you using? I think the smart chips do this...

Heh... but i'm gonna hold my breath until he announces what chip he has...

not using a chip

now what are you going to do Alcahest... no chip - do you get to breath??

I assume you had M2 on the tip of your tongue....

Anyway then it is probably your TV - if you have a V-hold try adjusting that. else check your cables and connections between the PS2 and the TV.

Shadow, I have to admitt, I was indeed going to blame the messiah2...

Why would there be a problem only with PSX games then? Does it send a different signal to the television?

I recommend trying different PSX games, if you look in the ps2 mannual it says, the PSX games can screw up on occassion. I doubt this is the problem you are having but it is a possibility. Hope it helps, Good Luck!

Actually, I've noticed this too on my PS2's...both M2Pro's. It's not the V-Hold on my TV, it's the chip. The PSX games...how can I put this...the screen look like its vibrating. I think that's what Rip-the-Jacker meant...

Smartchips do not cause this problem ShadowKnyght, what made you think this ?

**ShadowKnyght** · 12-10-2003,01:58 AM

??? hmmm just something I read bout V9 smartchips... but that is totally irrelavant now that he suggests that there is no chip in the unit.

very strange.
