Hi, i got the newest HDLoader 3.8b in the mail today, and i have a 40gb Fujitsu model MPG3409AT. I checked up on it at http://ps2drives.x-pec.com and it says its compatible with the v3 playstion2, but i have a v4 ps2 would that be the reason why HDLoader cant detect my HDD?
I formated the drive using Winhiip, and i made sure the jumpers on my HDD were set on master also...

HDLoader doesnt even detect the HDD, so i cant format the HDD or is there another way?
I was thinking maybe the network adapter...is there anyway i can test it to see if it works?

hmm..you mean like pad the back of the hdd slot in the ps2 with something soft? thats a good idea i doubt it'll work though with my luck , but i'll give it a try and get back to you.

Hey, me again i bought a new HDD and it's been working for a week until i added CoD3 to it through HDLoader, and now my HDLoader cant detect my HDD..I'm thinking its probably the CoD3 game, but cant figure out a way to delete it off my HDD since HDLoader cant detect my HDD. Is there any way to delete it off my HDD or do i have to reformat the whole thing through Winhiip?

can Winhiip just delete the one file rather than formating the whole drive? That would be about the only program i can think of.

well..now my computer doesnt recognize the HDD anymore...this hard drive has given me nothing but problems, and only a day or two of satisfaction.
