ok, I've done a lot of reading on hear and noticed people are all asking for this too but i've made about 15 CD's for coasters. i have a ps2 with a slide card and swap disks (cd & dvd) i've found so many forms of hdloader, some even as ISO's but none seem to load (red screen with swap CD). I noticed some HL Loaders have 2 files on the cd and some have a about 6 with a files folder. where can i get an ISO that will work with the slide card?

I also tried dvd loader v7all and it won't read my CD HDLoader. Any ideas what's wrong or were to find HDLoader that will work with the slide card?

thanks

Before burning your disks, do you change the LBA of the system.cnf file? if not, thats your problem.

if you've neglected to do this, here's how:

1) download CDGEN (it may be called CDGENPS2 - im not entirely sure)
2) if the file you want to burn is an iso, you'll need to rip it apart. For this, I use Isobuster. the app you choose is up to you.
3) once you have the individual files (not an iso), open cdgen and drag them into the main window.
4) right after dragging system.cnf in, right click that file > edit > click the 'Fix LBA' radio button > type 12231 in the box to the left > click OK
5) add any remaining files
6) file > create CD > save wherever you want.
7) burn resulting bin/cue files using Nero (burn image...)

i used swapmagic cd version 3.0 and when it said "load program", I inserted the cd loader 7 beta 5.2, hit X, then the screen goes to a red tint. I tried this also with cd loader 7All. I burned the CD Loader 7b5.2 ISO's to the CD should of been made foolproof.

I notice i'm using swapmagic cd version 3.0 and the instructions are for ver. 2.0. Any ideas?

by the way, i have a ver 9 ps2. Maybe that doesn't work with the swapmagic 3.0? I seen post saying i need to use dvd loader v7All, i have that. So i'm using swap magic DVD 2.0 to load the dvd loader7all, but the hd loader cd says unreadable. What hdloader ISO file should i be using at this point? Create a CD-r or DVD-r copy?

Sly, thanks for help twice now.

special boot, square, isn't that a feature on the swapmagic CD?

I have V9 PS2, according to "http://www.swapmagicfix.com/": NOTE: If you have a PS2 v9+ (SCPH-5000X series) ...., you will NOT be able to use the Swap Magic 2.0 CD disc. In order to use the FiXes on these updated version PS2 machines, you will need .... DVDLoader instead.


I load SwapMagic DVD 2.0, then DVD loader7All, but it wont boot my HDloader(ISO for v9-11 ps2 on a CD). As stated above, swapmagicfix says the DVDloader will load HDLoader. Do I need to install it on a DVD and not a CD? Kinda hard since I used an ISO copy of the HDloader. If it must be a DVD, any ideas how to load HDloader onto a DVD?

Thanks

Well, you said this:
Quote:

The swap magic 2.0 cd doesn't work on v9 consoles, but the 3.0 one does. Thats why swapmagicfix said the 2.0 won't work.

Secondly, when you use dvd loader, you have to insert an original ps2 cd based game if you want to load a cdr.

no, you have swap magic 3.0 so you can use cd loader.
