hi all
i think its time i get my ps2 chipped i was wondering whether its hard to do it yourself? as i think its something like 23 wires for a messiah 2 ? i did my old psx back in the day but that was only like 4 wires and i was wondering if its better left to do by a proffesional or should i try it?, also can i copy games onto dvdr and play them in my ps2 then blank the disc and copy over a new game and do the same over and over? or does the ps2 not read dvdrs?

I brought mine pre-modded.

I install Xbox mods and have installed PS2 mods, so it wasent a case of can I do it, it was more a case of I found a site that offered Pre-mods with a 12 month warentee for about £20 more than I could mosd it myself for.

If you are confident on your soldering skills, then its a pretty easy mod , if you are not, you have to ask yourself if its worth trashing a PS2 to save a few quid on a pre-mod.

I Modded it Myself...

Took me 1 week to do it though because the site I got the chip from sent me OUT OF DATE INSTRUCTIONS THAT HAD A DAMN MISTAKE ON !!!! hehe...

BUT If I had the correct instructions it would have took 3 hours max probably less...


You Will Need to buy a 15watt Fine Tip Soldering Iron as well...

better watch out with ps2 chipping...if you have never ever soldered something before I suggest you let it be chipped by someone with experience... pins are damn close to eachother, one bit of soldering connecting the wrong pins and you can use your ps2 as a placemat....
i soldered a psx and looked at the installation of a messiah 2 (and was damn glad I didn't have to do it myself). Latest versions of ps2 (especially the platinum ones) are even harder to solder with wiring points closer to each other

like said before...there aren't a lot of ps2 versions that like dvdrw's...dvd-r goes perfect in most of em, with some versions supporting dvd+r too (like my ps2)

? Its possible to unbridge the solder thats connecting the wrong pin with a Sewing pin or De-soldering stuff Very Happy

Take your time and make sure u have a Fine Tip 15 Watt Iron and u will be fine... DONT use Alot of solder Razz
