To malach_hamaves83,

Here's is my step by step installation process but before u start, make sure u prepare this few stuffs...

1) PS2 Memory Card 8MB preferably after market 64MB (I will tell you why u need so large space later on)
2) an USB Thumb Drive or a SD Card with USB Converter (preferably below 2GB)
3) Codebreaker 8.1 and above (no matter its original or downloaded)

once you done preparing this 3 items, then u download this RAR file.

http://sksapps.com/exploit/freevast/Noobie_Package.rar

after u download it, follow exactly this webpage below until u reach the last snapshot.

http://bootleg.sksapps.com/tutorials/fmcb/codebreaker.php

once u reach the last snapshot, just click NORMAL INSTALL.

after that, u can start enjoy...

if u want advance tips such as how to set alternative stuffs such as launchers and etc u can pm me again...

Added on September 4, 2009, 10:04 pmoh yea right, i forgot to tell why u may need a large capacity memory card...its due to if u planned to add custom launcher, the 8MB may not be enough...

example, i add a custom codebreaker v10.1 inside my PS2 memory card so that when i wanted to boot up codebreaker, i no need to insert the codebreaker cd, after finish selecting the cheat codes, it automaticly boots up the hdloader and then enjoy the cheat...

u can check out my customize launcher here

yo Ero-Sennin

i followed the instructions u gave me and succeeded to intsall the fmcb into mc. but when i reboot, it doesn't show anything, just plain fmcb logo make my ps2 freezes.

previously i used method "cd burn guide" to install the fmcb http://bootleg.sksapps.com/tutorials/fmcb/disc.php and it gave the same result, my ps2 freezed when boot thru mc.

i wonder how to get to extra home brew program at main menu by booting thru mc? funny part is, when i plug out the mc it can boot to normal menu.

when ur console booting up, did u unplug the USB thumb drive?

Added on September 4, 2009, 11:48 pmim suspecting that ur 8mb does not have enough free space, the fmcb when installing, if the space inside ur mc are not sufficient, it wont install all the main launcher inside ur mc, that's means u need to plug in the thumb drive and launch it via ulaunch > filebrowser > mass > then select ur launcher...

if this works, means ur mc card space is not enough...

Ero-Sennin,

my mc totally free,i just install fmcb inside it nothing more.. when booting, i plunged out my usb just mc in the slot. still gave the same result.

i went through trouble shooting guide http://bootleg.sksapps.com/tutorials/fmcb/help.php and i saw this!

I installed FMCB successfully, but only the normal menu shows, whats wrong?
MC booting:

* You did not include any of the recommended apps in your INSTALL folder
* You did not use all caps for the recommended apps
* You used a custom FREEMCB.CNF and did not configure it properly
* Your MC is not compatible (poor clone)
* You have a modchip and its conflicting with FMCB properly working




i believe the last answer is the reason for all this.if so how i can disable it?

Finally i done it! yaaataaaa...

i reformat my mc, follow back step by step of "codebreaker" method and there she goes...pretty fly for a white machine! hahahaha

Thanks to you buddy, now i can play my game through hard disc.
Yup i know my hd is small 20gig but it is a good start for beginner like me who wants to play home brew program. Maybe in the future i will hunt for 200 gig hd and 64MB memory card like you.

Congrats...sorry coz i cant reply ASAP due to my working environment, but anyway 20gig is way too small...i suggest u hunt at least 300GB +++ right now coz IDE/PATA HDD are getting extinct. I bought my 400GB used from LYN forum...but before u start hunt HDD here's a website for u to refer which specific HDD brand and model works and which fail...

http://ps2drives.x-pec.com/?p=list

Now my 400GB are full of RPG games, DVD9 games such as God Of War 1 and 2...and many other my favorite games. Recommended applications are codebreaker 10.1 in elf format...if possible, patch it with the latest hdloader, another recommended application is the patched hdloader that works with Fatal Frame series...if u want it i can send thru MSN when i'm free

Hey, I'm just wondering what's the going price of a ps2 in Malaysia now. Can anyone quote the price for a chipped and non chipped set. cheers

where u from?

morning

my fren ask me..can ps2 playing at pc monitor ???
i dun no,so ask otai2 kat sini..bolehker ???

kalau boleh..ape jenis kabelnye ???
setahu koi av kabel..s-video..component aje

trimas utk jawapan O..o

ask ur fren check his monitor got any S-Video input or component input or not...

Nobody havent answer my question yet....I really need help on this.....is not my TV spoiled...

I'm from KL. But studying in New Zealand now

3 suspect reasons only (as far as i can think of)

1 ) PS2 Processor/Board kong liao

2 ) Accidently change to component video mode

3 ) Video cable kong liao (got SONY COMPUTER ENTERTAINMENT opening sound or not?)

1)I suspect is this liao...if board/processor kong...how much usually to change it?get new console?

2)Is a very old TV...no component mode also...tested with PS2 AV cables(new ones) cause I'm using the old cable from my first playstation.

3)Sound also dont have...

i suggest that u send to ur friend's shop or someone that u know, ask them check for u and quote u the price for replace the faulty parts...
