Oh... Well... No.
Thanks Soundwave, I'll blame it on the language barrier :wink:

Now that I did burn it, the software loads and showing me the game list - which I can't play. Getting a black screen when trying to run one.

I think it has ...

Thanks,
I did clean the lense with alcohol and a Q-tip, I guess it's dieing...

The PS2 has a modchip which allows it to play backed-up games.
I don't know what kind of chip I've got in there...

I've followed this guide , formatted the HD and copied a game to it using the GUI version.

Technical Support... PS2 only reads CDs and won't read DVDs

Hello,
I hope it's okay posting a technical question, it seems people here are very experienced.
I have a "fat" PS2. It reads all my backups of the original games from CDs, but not the original games (or their backups) on DVDs.
I have tried cleaning the lense and adjusting the cog ( tutorial ), but ...

Thanks fellows,
Re-buying them for low cost on EBay could work too, thanks.

My younger brother stopped by the other day and brought me his PS2 and a few games, apparently he doesn't use it anymore (he got so serious since he joined the IDF... :) ).

So great, now I have a PSOne AND a PS2.
How about ...

PSOne into Arcade - H.D instead of CD-ROM and Emulators

Hi All,
I have 2 arcade cabinets and I already restored one and used it to display a game I've created in Flash:

I thought I'll use my old PSOne for the other cabinet.
