I'm going to still test it out some more. Maybe the problem is the SCPH-15000.

Yes, it is me saying my cards do not have bad sectors now. I have now tried with 4 brand new non Magic Gate cards, and 3 known good Magic Gate cards. The system always fails to boot with Magic Gate, and once at the menu when I remove and reinsert the card, it shows 3 corrupt files. The 3 new...

My cards are working perfectly for everything else so I doubt they have bad sectors. It says files loaded correctly, but when I view files on the PS2 it says the memory card has corrupt files on the Magic gate card. Non Magic gate card works and doesn’t have corrupt files, but every time I try...

With a little trial and error I got it to install. I had to rename my ps3mca-tool.exe to ps3mca.exe, it is currently installing. So, I tried it with a Magic Gate and Non Magic gate card. With Magic Gate card, it fails to launch and stays on black screen. I remove the memory card and I get...

Sorry, im still confused on how to do this. I have the ps3mca tool downloaded, is that all im required to have? I assume i use CMD for the commands you have listed, is that correct? Im also confused on the /boot/bootelf. When I download ProtoPWN, where do i put it? In the ps3mca folder on...

I have an SCPH-15000 and this looks to be very helpful. Can someone walk me through the installation? Can the PS3MCA be used for this? If not, how do I get it on the memory card?

That is very good news. I will check it out. Thank you

Yes, He said 1.966 does not work with my SCPH-15000. I will try what you made to make sure.

Does ps3mca-tool-1.953 exist anywhere? I use the memory card adapter to install Free MCBoot, but I cannot find version 1.953. I am currently using 1.94, which is the newest I can find. Is there a way to update the files in the 1.94 version to use 1.953? 1.966 does not work with my SCPH-15000...

Hey everyone, I finally got Free MCBoot working with my SCPH-15000. Only 1.94 works, and although the text is garbled on the browser, I can still use OPL and boot games from the SCPH-20400 HDD. My problem is I have ordered 3 separate Free MCBoot cards online, and I have created different...

I will try that with the 1.953 version. Thanks

Ok, I am most likely good to go now. I used the freemcboot 1.94 with ps3mca and installed it. I now get a modified broswer. There is scrambled words on it, but openps2loader works witht he SSD installed in my SCPH-20400. I can now see and boot all the games I have on the SSD. Im sure there...

Got an update on my progress. I didn't have much time tonight but I was able to get my Windows 11 to recognize my PS3MCA. I used the ps3mca tool and formatted an original 8mb sony MC and did a full install of 1.93. It completed the install. I put the MC in the PS2 and booted it up. I...

That would be great! Thank you

can you please elaborate on this? I’m new to the PS2 scene. I have a lot of knowledge of Dreamcast stuff, but not PS2. I’ve read about needing kernel patches, but I’ve not found any more information regarding them. Can you give me a run down on how to perform what you mentioned in the post?
