At this point you can re-assemble your PS2. Keep in mind that the software that makes this work is installed on your memory card. You should label it as such.
When you remove the card from the machine, it will act like a normal PS2 slim, as nothing on the console itself has been modified. The console will still play retail games just fine, and you can use either the open space left on the Free McBoot memory card or another memory card inserted in to the second memory card slot to save games.
Thank you Jason, this was the clearest guide I found on how to mod the PS2. Instead of booting to cogswap I booted to uLE and then I followed your guide successfully. Thank you very much! What should I do? Great work! Does this work on model SCPH? I think that it was modified right away after it was bought.
Hope you can help me, thanks! Your guide was a great help. I got it to work on my 2nd or 3rd try with that game. There was only one thing different about that game to the others.
I did a bit of digging around the internet to try and find more videos of people successfully pulling this off. First of all, thanks for putting this guide together! I just wanted to share something i found that another forum user somewhere said that I think helped sorry, forgot the source.
I dont fully understand the technical side behind all of this so I hope it makes sense:. According to this source, the boot file of the ps2 game that you use should have an LBA of around 1,, I checked all of the games that I had been trying and failing with, and they all had LBAs in the s or s. One of the games Killzone had an LBA of almost 3,,, but I couldnt get it to work either maybe too high? I dont fully understand the technical terms behind doing all of this, so it may just have been coincidence.
I hope it may help any one else trying to do this. Hii, i have sony playstation 2 slim silver SCPH so how can i moded like u show inside u did cover button for boot. Hello Jason,thanks for taking the time to make this guide and since its been a while since you made i doubt you are still active here right? However if you see this i have a question. Thanks in advance. I can swap the legal disc to the clone disc and use it to play my game flawlessly my legal copy is quite scratched and freezes the game to load up more data.
The game also has the FRWL. Not even booting up the FRWL demo works! The only thing I find peculiar is that I can use the modded disc to run the game flawlessly, since the original disc is severely scratched and causes the game to buffer every minutes. Any help? I think I had sent a couple of posts last Friday.
Now I have Free McBoot! BTW, thanks for this guide! Hi, just wondering how the ulaunch elf CD rom is supposed to be burned? I burned both the. Got into cogswap and used the legal ps2 CD game then put in the ulaunch cd but nothing happens. It is esier than you think uncle There is a ton of ulaunch. This process will take 5 - minutes. You need swap magic discs which you can find online. Turn the playstation upside down and unscrew the screws.
Now you have it disassembled. Do not touch the power ribbon. To mod the inside, take a look at the picture. You will see a small cap like piece in the very top right where the red square is. Layer 2 or 3 pieces of duct tape around this so the cap is not visible. You can also use scotch or masking tape, but duct is recommended. Once you taped it up, you can put your playstation 2 back together. This is the last step! Once you put your console back together, open the flip top.
Look at letter A in this picture. Don't worry about C or B. There is a small hole in letter A, which is where the flip top closes at.
Many consider the PS2 to be the most successful game console to date. Since the unit's launch, Sony has given the PS2 several hardware revisions, including a dramatic case size reduction in Sony packed a ton of information on the box's back in English, French, and Spanish. If you look closely at the box's front cover, you'll see the PlayStation 2 standing upright on a thin, circular stand.
Unfortunately, this vertical stand is not included with the console. Before buying this unit, I had never seen or held a slim case PlayStation 2. I was surprised by the PS2's tiny size. The PlayStation 2's right side, or bottom when mounted vertically, has three small holes used to attached the vertical stand--sold separately. The Ethernet jack, digital audio out optical , AV multi out connector, power connector, and two cooling vents are located on rear of the PlayStation 2.
This image shows a closeup of the Ethernet jack, digital audio out optical , AV multi out connector, power connector, and one of the rear vents. I thought it would be interesting to compare the PlayStation 2 and some of the components from the PlayStation 3. If you would like to see more of the PlayStation 3's internal hardware, check out my gallery, "Cracking open the Sony PlayStation 3". This photo shows another shocking comparison--the slim case PlayStation 2 and the cooling system from the PlayStation 3.
To disassemble the PlayStation 2, you'll start on the bottom. There are six case screws that you must remove. Removing the warranty stick, the unit's two rear rubber feat and three rubber plugs from the front will reveal the six Phillips case screws.
With the six case screws removed, you can gently lift off the PlayStation 2's top cover. Removing the case's top half exposes the optical drive's laser and drive mechanism. Be careful not to damage these components during dissection and reassembly. Removing the case's top half also exposes the PlayStation 2's metal shielding, tiny cooling fan, heatsink, power button PCB, and a tiny bit of the mainboard. FreeMcBoot is probably the easiest method out there. You'll need a hacked memory card. Not Helpful 3 Helpful 0.
