I've just checked, and unfortunately the .cfg files on my PS2's hard drive aren't named according to the game's title (at least not the literal title, instead they seem to reference a serial number of sorts), so even if you were kind enough to zip them up in an archive for me to download, I...

Brilliant! Thanks for that, mate.

Is there a Scandisk type program for the PS2, something that will scan the PS2's IDE hard drive for corrupted or broken game files, please? Preferably a program that runs natively on the PS2, to save having to remove the hard drive from the console and plug into into a PC with still has IDE...

But it seems that OPL Manager can download .cfg files automatically. Does that program then take into account the relevant specifics of the hardware and software that your PS2 is using, and modify the .cfg files where necessary?

Is there a PS2 program that you can download that contains all of the working Open PS2 Loader .cfg files for getting the games to work? So that you download it, put it on a USB stick, insert it into your PS2's USB slot, run the program (using ULaunchLEF or whatever) and it will scan your PS2's...

I am trying to download v3.3.0 revision 1, but both the 32 and 64 bit versions from: https://github.com/israpps/HDL-Batch-installer/releases will not download. Instead, my anti-virus (Avast) keeps on stopping the download, with the message: "We've safely aborted connection on...

I thought I'd play it safe, and buy an IDE drive. More expensive for less storage capacity, admittedly, but I've always been unlucky, so I thought I'd stick with what had worked for me. The largest I could find was a 320 GB, for £48, so I bought it. And it won't fit onto my PS2 network card...

Hiya! OK. I'll let you know if I have any problems. Will do, thanks. Tell me about it. No TV manufacturer seems to care about retrogaming, let alone actually bother to say whether or not their shiny new TVs will display older resolutions and standards. My oldest console is my N64, and it's...

Thanks for the answers, mate. I will look into PFS Shell and PFS Fuse, thanks. I'm *think* the hard drive passed the SMART test on the PC, but I might check to make sure. BTW, I take it that modern versions of Open PS2 Loader use a 'CFG' folder, and not a 'CFG-DEV' folder, as OPL seemed to...

You've found the problem! I did as you said, and Open PS2 used the virtual memory card as it should do. I ran HDDChecker (thanks for letting me know about this, I didn't know there was a workable disc checking program on the PS2), and it found and fixed problems.So I tried to copy the ART, CFG...

Hiya mate, thanks for answering. Yes. I've been using OPL with VMC memory cards for a few years now, with no problems. I've always created the VMC file for a given game via the individual game settings (press TRIANGLE when the game is highlighted in the game menu), and then the game just uses...

Basically, Open PS2 Loader (I tried several builds, including one that until now has worked perfecly with VMC files) will not use VMC files. I tell it to use them in the OPL menu, but then it ignores them and just writes to the physical memory card 1. I have been using FMCBoot, and Open PS2...

I see, thanks. That's good to know for future programs.

Thanks for all of the answers, everyone. In the end, I thought I'd go with Jolek's suggestion to add the game to FreeMcBoot's main menu, as that seemed like the easiest solution, so I copied Geotron to my first memory card (the one that I boot from, it doesn't matter about the space on that...

I use Open PS2 Loader to play games from an internal hard drive in my fat PS2. I want to add the homebrew game Geotron to the hard drive, too, but I can only find the game in .ELF format, not .ISO format. Is it possible to convert the .ELF file to .ISO, or to download Geotron in .ISO format, or...
