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 Exx models use the ps2_gxemu.self. Is there a way to get make the B00 use ps2_gxemu.self?

You need to use WebMAN MOD for easy change of ps2_emu.

But your issue is very strange. On which CFW are you on right now?.

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 effect either. Seems to be the common noPS2 issue with no real known fix.

I've also tried rebug 4.84.2 as a test with no change in outcome.

No, WebMAN MOD has a feature to select which emulator launch for PS1/PS2 emulation. Read it on the link that I've posted.

Try loading ps2_gxemu first and verify if PS2 emulation works.

Check this video from Tim:

If there is no ps2_gxemu option available, then you will have to do some shady stuff by replacing the current ps2_emu.self file with the ps2_gxemu.self file (it's just renaming it). The issue with this is that it may introduce many errors as ps2_gxemu is not designed to work with Full-BC consoles.

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

I may be wrong but I don't think gxemu was ever available for selection in webman, or anywhere else.
 
ps2_gxemu will not work on CECHA/B consoles, the emulator looks for different hardware in the motherboard which is not available in CECHA/B consoles (ps2_gxemu looks for the GS chip, not the EE+GS one) so it will not work, I already tried it. Even if it could use the GS inside the EE+GS chip, the RSX in CECHC/E consoles has direct access to the GS, both the RSX and GS work in tandem with PS2 games, that's why filtering is better there, this is not the case with CECHA/B consoles, RSX can't directly access GS and they are both isolated and don't have the motherboard traces, this interfer with how ps2_gxemu works and will not operate.
