put in a hard drive
installed hdloader
installed argon
installed sms media player
whole music and video library inside the hard drive
whole elf library inside the hard drive
whole game library inside the hard drive
broadband on my net adapter


the things im planning to do:

integrate a bluetooth wireless keyboard reciever inside the ps2
integrate a network activity led (don't know how to do that)
integrate a memory card activity led (don't know how to do that)

im looking for more things to do on my ps2, im capable of soldering directly onto the ps2 boards. i plan to keep my ps2 looking stock and try to keep all my mods inside of it, so if you guys got any suggestions please post, thank you in advance.

There are a few interesting Mods, like the SIO-EE-Mod or the VGA-Mod.
What do you want to do.
Just pimp up your PS2 to the max.?

You also may post a few more info about your PS2-Revision/Version.

ye im trying to mod my ps2 to the max but i don't want to do any modchip upgrades, but i never heard of the vga mod, hopefully it will give me better graphics if i hook it up to my monitor, has anyone done it yet? and what other mods do you guys know cause im trying to do a memory card and hdd activity mod.

First of all,...
What is the SCPH-Number of the PS2 you wanna mod?

Try the SIO-EE-Mod, if you want to develop, or play with Sony-Tools to "remote-control" your PS2 a bit from PC.

[cannouu]

the schp number is SCHP-39001, and its an NTSC american version, a graphics upgrade would be good, and im thinking to do activity led lights next i have no idea what that
SIO-EE mod is so please eplain it further,
thank you

all i have done on mine is use a bluetooth mic

I have seen an internal multi-tap integration thread around hear somewhere.
There has also also been a USB- IDE adapter integration thread here. That way your HDD doesn't need to be removed to add new games.
I have done neither, but the threads should be here somewhere. The MC activity light mod I believe is here also.
One thing I will do in the future is figure out how to get a bigger, quieter, higher CFM fan inside my Fat PS2.
You could also put LEDs that shine through the front vent holes.

@cannouu & files21- What are your bluetooth receiver's purpose? Are you using it on a hacked logitech, or singstar mic?

P.S. You can check out my ghetto external mods linked in my signature. External USB hub, Mem card reader, Multi-tap and HDD fan.

I will search a bit for the VGA-Mod, but why not using the search, or google?

hey thanks for the suggestions, the multitap thing seems very intresting but i don't think i can still fit it inside the case because its already filled with two circuit boards, the wireless controller reciever, and the wireless keyboard reciever. i don't really want to put much lights to make my case look good cause i integrated lights on the vent to show the wireless controller connectivity, keyboard connectivity, and 4 extra leds ready to be a hard drive activity led or net activity mod.

im not really intrested in the sio-ee-mod because i jus want it to be a stand alone ps2, i want it to look stock, and my hard drive is already good because i just use hdloader to load the games. but i jus had an idea about somehow soldering a flash drive or a usb card reader onto the inside part of the memory card slot, and then adding a little slot where i can insert a sd card or comact flash card.

ill get my pictures up

here are some pictures
no wires hanging our of the front :]
