1. Downloaded the FreeDVDBoot ISO from the CTurt Github repository. I created multiple copies burned at lowest possible speed using Imgburn or Brasero.
2. Using the original laser I managed to open uLaunchELF a handful of times from FreeDVDBoot, and didn't follow through the FMCB install when I had the chance. The discs became unreadable. I was able to see visual glitches during those attempts. Now the disc boots into a gray screen then black. The controller light turns on and off.
3. Replaced the laser. The DVD potentiometer on the new laser is calibrated at 980 ohms from the manufacturer. I am able to play DVDs, and ESR patched games.
4. FreeDVDBoot shows a black screen when loading the disc. I've tried unplugging the memory card, and controller. I've also tried waiting 5 minutes for the uLaunchELF to boot. The console language is set to English. The time is also set on the console. I've tried using the diagnosis "on" option as well.
5. Purchased a FMCB memory card and got a black screen when restarting restarting the console.
6. I've also tried the recovery methods, and copying the contents from the FMCB card to my official 8MB card. The issue is that the Boot folder on the FMCB card is too large to fit on the 8MB card.
Seems like I've exhausted my options at this point. Any help would be greatly appreciated. My end goal is to run OPL and play games from an SMB server.
