If u have the fat PS2 u can either disable the modchip if it has the
ability to! And Buy Swap Magic! I go online with swap magic everytime
no problems!

The new v14 slimlines, the silver slims, have the laser burning out issue fixed. innstalling a modchip is the same in difficulty that modding any ps2 is.

so basically swap magic is like..you put the disc in then it will tell you to put in ur copied game right ?? that seems cool...and if i do that DNAS ID thing on a copied game will i be able to play online ps2 games ? and when i use this swap magic will it mess up the laser ??

As long as you're using Good Media you shouldn't have any laser problems... and yes about the DNA ID's
