hi I'm trying to install free mcboot on a memory card and I can't get it to work
I have:
a cd with the needed files (got from sksapps or whatever)
a USB with necessary files
slim ps2 790001 or something (I got it new in 2007)
and cd ps2 games
whenever I swap te ps2 game for the ulaunch installer cd, I get the 'please insert a ps2 disk'
please help, thanks
To install free mcboot to a new memory card, you need either a memory card with free mcboot already on it, or a chipped ps2 console. your model number is fine, but free mcboot only works with DVD games, not CD games.
@greenghoul, PM sent about an install..

um, this guide i read CD Installing said that I need to put it on a CD. I don't know what your talking about with DVDs and the such.
The tutorial says you need a way to boot the CD,
Modchips
SwapMagic retail discs
A Memory Card Exploit thats has Cogswap
Cheat discs such as AR Max or CodeBreaker
A friend with any of the above.
Which method are you using?
To be exact,... ESR only plays patched DVD-Rs.Quote:

He also could have used the PS2-Game-Swap-Trick.
That won't need a softmodded MC, nor a hardmod ('Modchip').
yeah, I'm trying to do the ps2 game swaptrick, but it keeps saying that I need to insert a ps2 disk after I make the swap
Sorry, but with your marginal information we couldn't help you much.Quote:

The games that I have tried are:
Dragon Rage, Harry Potter, Crash Bandicoot, Timesplitters, and Midnight Club Racing
I didn't change anything on the cd, I just followed the guide that I gave a link to in a previous post.
This is what I do to swap the games (same method as I've used for swapping ps1 games with backups)
1: I block off the two sensors (the one that "stops the disk" and the one that makes the ps2 think the tray is closed)
2: Start ps2 with no disk
3: Go to browser
4: Put the ps2 CD in the tray, pull out the open/close sensor and put it back in
5: Wait for the cd to load, so I see a memory card and PS2 cd in browser
6: Take the PS2 cd out and put the cd I made in the tutorial in the tray
7: Start "PS2 game" from the browser
8: Then it's all like "put a ps2 game in"
And that's everything I did.
