Driver Converter Stick Ps2 Iso Downloads
I recently bought a PS2, and I want to be able to play many games on it, like with the everdrives. After some research, It seems there are a variety of methods, but specifically I was wondering if there was a way to Play all the games without burning 3,870 individual disks.
I have a fat PS2. I have heard of Free Mcboot, but I don't know if that alone allows you to play burned disks... Anyone else have any input?
Oct 21, 2014. Playing ISO's on a PS2. From there, you can run other elf files (via cd or flash drive) to install open ps2 loader or anything else. Might be easier if you buy a. After that, all you need is you MC card with FMCB, your PS2 with the HDD mounted thru the adapter (pretty easy to find). A standard HDD will work.
Is there one fix all solution that is 100% compatible? I don't need such a high compatibility, but it would be nice to have. Well i guess paul proved me wrong as i was writing my post. Do you know if a normal USB hdd will work, or do I specifically require the Sony brand one for the PS2? I think it only has like 40 GB, so I wouldn't be able to fit all the cool games onto it. There are countless good PS2 titles, so I need to have a way to use quite a bit of memory.
If it is as simple as using Free Mcboot and burning disks, how do I go about this? What disks are best? CD-ROM, DVD+R, or maybe DVD-RW? I don't know what the PS2 uses. But can it really be that simple, as burned disks and free Mcboot?
Everything else i've found has had really complicated maneuvers like taking the top of the PS2 off and playing 007 Agent Under Fire and beating the 1st level, then MID LOAD swap games... That is far too much. Something like that is not of interest to me. Just want to say, the way i installed freemcboot was by getting swap magic, take the front part of the disc tray off (where the logo is), and burned the installation disc to install freemcboot on my memory card. To swap disc, you need a old credit card and cut a little slot to latch on the disc tray to manually open it and close it (once you've done it a few times, its real easy).
From there, you can run other elf files (via cd or flash drive) to install open ps2 loader or anything else. Might be easier if you buy a preinstalled memory card (might be willing to set one up and sell it at the cost I got it if you dont want to mutilate your ps2). CD-R and DVD-R are ideal (DVD+R might work but is better for new tech) for swapped games. I think any HDD that fits and meets those older standards (not too new, not too high allocation but I really dont know what exact specs) should work.
But as said, you want a hdd that is not external, for the usb 1.1 is close to the equvilant of the sd loaders for dreamcast (without the cdda problems). It's far more easy to install a HDD. I don't know you're from but here in France, you can find people in some forum that can install FreeMcBoot for free on your memory card. After that, all you need is you MC card with FMCB, your PS2 with the HDD mounted thru the adapter (pretty easy to find). A standard HDD will work. You manage the HDD using winhiip for exemple. It froamts the HDD, install the games.
You lod/start your games using OpenPS2Loader I have 4 PS2 with this setting, one with an IDE HDD 320Go full of PS2 games, one with a SATA HDD 500Go full of PS2 games, and two with a IDE HDD 80Go full of PS1 games. So yes, it's easy and it works. It's far more easy to install a HDD.

I have an old swap disc from back in the day - no idea which one, but I know it was not one that came with the replacement shell/top-loader.
Guess I'll have to look into loading the memory card thing when I finally get around to this (bookmarking this thread). I don't know where USB HDDs came up as that's not what I was referring to. On a side (yet somewhat related) note, are there any useful advancements/mods for the network adapter or is it basically useless at this point? It's far more easy to install a HDD.

So yes, it's easy and it works. So i purchased a network adapter for my phat ps2 ages ago and i'm planning on getting it all up and running with the 500gb hard drive i got lying around. I've been busy with other stuff so ain't gotten round to it yet but at the time i was researching this stuff it appeared that ps1 games could not be booted off hard drive with network adapter setup. I don't know if i read dodgy info or if the situation has changed since but i noticed in your post that you have ps2 and ide hard drive with 80 gb full of ps1 games. I gather that you must be booting those ps1 games from hard drive on your ps2 or why would you have the ps2 with 80gb of ps1 games setup. Could you please let me know if it's possible now to boot ps1 games from ps2 hard drive and if so how?
A fat PS2 running Free McBoot (which lets you boot up from a memory card) and Open PS2 Loader, a network card, and a normal, IDE hard drive, is fantastic, as thereby you're not only speeding up loading immensely and also stopping all loading errors, but also saving wear and tear on the PS2's DVD drive, as once I've installed the game(s) to the hard drive then I never need to use the game disc(s) again, so I put them away safe in my cupboard. This is what I do, and it's *fantastic*. I don't even use a disc in my PS2's DVD drive any more; when I turn on my PS2 it boots up almost instantly, from the memory card in slot 2, then comes up with a menu on screen allowing me to load any game from hard drive, and whilst I'm playing any game, I can press a certain combination of joypad buttons to reset the PS2 (at any time) and go back to the menu to load a new game. It really is fantastic.
The only limitations are: - you can't play PS1 games like this, PS1 games must be played from the original discs (though this might have changed by now, it's been years since I looked into the matter), - not all games work from hard drive, but every game I've tried does, and the compatibility is being increased all the time as work progresses on the loading software, - only some games can be made to save and load gamesaves from the hard drive (using the virtual memory card feature). Many games still need to load and save from the memory card. You can also load games from a USB stick, these are very common and cheap nowadays, but since the PS2 only supports USB standard 1.1, then it's very slow, around the speed of loading from a real PS2 disc. For a real speed increase, you need to use a hard drive which only fat PS2's support. Slim PS2's can only load via the USB port, both USB stick and (so I've heard) USB hard drives, but the speed will only be a fraction of a fat PS2 with an IDE hard drive. Also, in my experience, some games don't seem to work from a USB stick that work from the hard drive, but I didn't delve deeply into this matter as I had enough space on my PS2's hard drive, so maybe I missed something, and anyway that was a long time ago and no doubt the USB support in Open PS2 Loader has been improved in the years since then. To play games from a hard drive, you need: + a fat PS2 (does not need to be modded), + a network adapter, + an IDE hard drive, most will do, I currently have a 250GB in mine, though only 220GB is seen by the PS2.
I think the software can be made to see larger than 220GB on larger drives, but I've not yet looked into it, as 220GB is more than enough for my current games collection.
HI guys, I really need your help. I have had a Ps2 system for a while now, and I know that you can make it play games from a USB stick. My Ps2 has a mod chip in it, so i can play 'burnt' games.

- Insert the disc into the playstation 2. - You should have a USB Pen drive ready, of capacity minimum 4 GB. - Alongwith the USB Advance, you will get a software for your PC to convert the downloaded games into the games playable through USB.
- Open the software, browse for a game file, and convert it. - Now insert the pen drive into your computer and copy the converted game files into the pen drive. - Remove the pen drive from computer and insert it in your PS2. - Boot your PS2 with the USB ADvance CD in it and now select the game and press the 'X' button to play!
