Probably no point though right, given the performance is pretty sub-par. Really trying to see what alternatives exist for the CECHAxx and CECHBxx models that end up with failed PS2 hw emulation.

Definitely no ps2_gmemu option from what i can see. @aldostools any guidance on this?

i must be blind....as i cant see that anywhere

As i understand it, webMan Mod only influences .iso files or ps2classics? This issue is affecting disc based games and iso files. Im running evilnat 4.91.2 beta 6. This CFW is also on my CECHA00 and CECHC02 and disc games run fine. I have swapped and re-married known good BD drives with no...

I now have 2x CECHB00 PS3s that are suffering from the black screen, exit to XMB menu issue when running PS2 discs. I was wondering if there is a way to change which ps2 emu is used on these models? as i understand, Axx and Bxx models use the ps2_emu.self for running ps2 games, and the Cxx and...

couldnt find it in the options... edit, found this video on youtube, but it shows making an iso as opposed to running from a disc

Any chance you know how to force a BC ps3 to use software emulation for discs instead of HW emulation in the event of a failed EE chip?

If you have a spare board, just salvage from it. All the capacitors in the surrounding area are the same 22uF

This is a thank you and appreciation post to all those who have contributed and built upon the knowledge base we now so luckily have which enables us to more effectively troubleshoot. I recently bought a CECHC02 with the usual YLOD and I thought it would be useful to document the steps i took...

Found the pinouts and ohm reading in my syscon scripts folder. Looks like i'm yet to salvage a re-usable RSX :(

Is there any way to test if an RSX is good when its removed from the board? I've salvaged some 65nm and 90nm RSX chips from various PS3s while setting up my ACHI PRO SC and i'd like to make sure i didnt harm them in the removal process.

Are you manually changing the bottom heater at each level?

Got my delivery from PCBWay this morning containing my batch of RIP-Felix's tantalizers. Just wanted to thank @RIP-Felix for making these public so that we can order them. Upon reflection i will be trimming the edges off to make them easier to fit, i thought i read somewhere that they should...

Replaced the tokins on the rsx, both sides. Got it to boot. Video output was intermittent through both component and hdmi. Was responsive to artefacts when pressing the RSX chip so figured bad connections. Attempted reflow. failed Now have this errlog ofst[ 44]:err_code:0xffffffff...

having the same problem with 2 consoles...
