Singaboy or whoever has tape mod PS2

[Mr. Elmo]

Ok, got my slim ps2, opened it up and tape mod it. Now, I have 3 questions

1. If I have a DVD playing, opened up the cover, but the DVD keeps spinning until i press reset, does this mean I have done it correctly?

2. If so, how do I switch games? Turn off PS2, Insert Swapmagic, insert backup?

would i have to do the same process for retail games? Turn off PS2/ insert retail game, turn on.

3. Even though the disc is still spinning when I opened the cover, it does not play too well, it skips around until I close the cover, is this normal or did I screw up somewhere?

P.S. My swapmagic havent came yet so I can't test my backups, which is why I'm asking

[SingaBoiy]

1. Yes

2. Yes, turn off then switch and turn back on.

3. That happeneds to me.

Everything looks fine for you. Just dont try to put in a game when its spinning. Almost lost me Socom 2 disc during that

[Mr. Elmo]

heh, yea. I tried to take a disc out while it was spinning because the disc slow down when you open the cover. The noise it made scared the hell outa me.


But good to hear that I didnt screw up anything...the Warranty stick is still intact. Its very hard to notice the crease it made. If anything should go wrong, I got the EB PRP!

And I'm hoping the eletrical tapes hold...I dont think I can handle opening up my ps2 again

P.S. the only thing i hate about this slim ps2 is that I can't turn it off....What's the point of standby anyhow

[asmithz]

hold the button down to turn it off.

[orcutt989]

hold the button down to turn it off.

Served.

[Mr. Elmo]

hold the button down to turn it off.

that only puts it on standby. I held the thing down for like 15 seconds and the red light was still on

[asmithz]

Yea its suppose to stay red, its off tho. Thats why the game stop. You can unplug it, but you probly only saving 5volts a day by doing that.

no, it is on standby, did you not have the old fat ps2?

[asmithz]

Yea it turned off from the back, but there's no use for it.

[Mr. Elmo]

another question.

Is it possible to switch DVDs movie without turning off the power?

Manual says to press stop and open the cover to take out the disc...well, I pressed stop, open the cover, disc was still spinning.

Is that suppose to happen?
