okay i did a google search for "failed to load cdvd.irx" and i got 2 whole results. one was a dead link and the other was on page 6 or this very thread. i tried what you suggested to the other person, i moved cdvd.irx to the FILES folder and put it just above unrar.irx, sadly with no effect. i still get the same error. i edited my kl.dat so that all the elfs were assigned to a button, even the L3 and R3 buttons. i renamed ps2menu.elf to BOOT.ELF. i used titlemaker to get my title.db. all the files were put in the exact order you mentioned. but still i get the "failed to load cdvd.irx" error. do you have any other suggestions? keep in mind that i'm putting this exploit cd image right onto the hdd with winhiip.

That was IOP.IRX its a compleatly different file.

unrar.irx? what files are in your folder.

Heres the order and LBA of the files I have in cdgen.
Make sure yours is identicle to this:

FILES(folder) @ 23
SYSTEM.CNF(not edited) @ 24
EXPINST.ELF @ 25
CDVD.IRX @ 46
TITLE.DB @ 62

thanks for the advice jonjak, i put those files in exactly the right order and made sure the lba numbers were identical. i still got the same error. i cant help but wonder if it's because of the way i'm doing it. i have no swap discs, just a retail hdloader cd. i also have no mod chip. so the only way i can get the exploit in the ps2 is to transfer the exploit image right to the hdd with winhiip, then use my hdloader cd to load that image from the hdd. do you think that this could be the source of my problems? what do i need to change to make it work this way?

also, i've heard that i can use hdloader to copy burned discs to the hard drive by switching the cd at the screen where you name the image. could i instead put in a cd-rw with the exploit at that time and access it? i prefer the winhiip method but i just keep getting that annoying "error: failed to load cdvd.irx". thanks in advance.

oh, i just remembered. the files i had been using and their order were from page 1 of this thread, and i had moved cdvd.irx as per the instructions on page 6 of this thread.

also, i have another question. when i use winhiip to transfer the exploit image to the ps2 hdd, what should it's ID be? the default is sces_666.66, mode 1,2,3 all off, and cd image as opposed to dvd image. should i change any of those settings? might that have something to do with it?

Freezes on line "LOAD" about half way through...

---Load iomaxnx, ps2dev9, ps2ip#

where the # sign is just a solid cursor block... My IP dat file is:

192.168.1.102
255.255.255.0
192.168.1.0

works from cd just fine with same dat file...something is weird (though a few ppl on other forums have the same problem aswell...)

Hi all,

I thought I would put up a list of games for hd advance that work and have been tested by me and I have included the mode settings also. I was not sure which thread to put this in so if there is a better one please let me know and I will post it there also.

How do I post it? Currently it is a Word Document with tables and cells for alignment purposes.

What more could you ask for? Oh yea a bigger screen...
Now thats a big screen. (Check out this gaming setup) http://www.thebestproducts2u.com/bigscreen.htm

Ok what I did was create an RTF file and post it to the net. here is the link if you want to see what games work and which ones don't. I tested over 100 games.

http://www.thebestproducts2u.com/runamuck/gamelist.rtf

just click the link then click open. It should take you to Word or WordPad.

Help please. I got the SLUS for my PS1 game now, but don't know how to make title.db. The link post in previous post is dead can't find title.db maker.

Another question: How could I copy whatever that needs to be copy to the MC from the cd I burn with all that files in there?

subscribed just to post this;

went out and bought ARmax evo, decided 16 megs wasn't enough so i bought a jump drive trio at wally world ($20) hada 1 gig sd card so now i have 1 gig extra to play with.
also wally world has 128 mb sd cards for $15 right now so for 35 bucks you could have 128 megs for your action replay media player or to carry extra files for pc too
ALSO THANKS FOR THIS GUIDE
i'll robly be postin ?'s in a few days

Nevermind about Last post. I know how to get my PS1 game ID now, and know how to create the title.db file. Problem.

On the first page::

/FILES/PS2SMAP.IRX (Module)

/FILES/UNRAR.IRX (Module)

/FILES/SYSTEM.CNF (???)

somewhere on the fifth or the sixth page:
******************
PS2LINK.IRX
PS2SMAP.IRX
CDVD.IRX
UNRAR.IRX
SYSTEM.CNF
*******************
which on is correct. And My friend have gameshark, he put game shark in his ps2, it ask for a disk. I put the compiled CD-R, which I followed the instruction on the first page. PS2 ask a sony original CD or DVD.

Sorry for bothering you guys, but i'm a noob at these things, with an AR MAX EVO, what files should i transfer to the memory card?

And let's be honest, what we're tryin find here is a way to play burned copys without modchips or swapmagics, so, how can i load a ps2 game?

I haver an european ps2, and some psx games, like toca touring car championchip, ridge racer, tony hawk's pro skater 2, etc, if that helps.

Signature failed to load ---> Error 69

Hey .. I just need to go get a PS1 disk tommorow and i;m sure evrything will work ( tired with SLUS from Gameshark and Grand Turismo 3 before i read this thread, witch is AWsome and Lots of help Thanks you)

I just have one simple question What is LBA
whre is LBA in system.cnf and how do i change it when i open the system file in notepad it is as follows:

BOOT2 = cdrom0:\EXPINST.ELF;1
VER = 1.10
VMODE = NTSC

I dont see an LBA line to change

Neways .. i just dont know what it is and would be cool if someone could point me in the right direction .. thanks !

to clarify my question in the tutorial is says:
Quote:
/SYSTEM.CNF (Aiming at the EXPINST.ELF, with the LBA in 12231)Right here is where you have to right click on this file and choose edit.Where it says Fix LBA click on it and type in 12231.This file is used to boot up your memory card exploit installer
When i right click on System.cnf (EDIT) is not an option .. like i said i can open in notepad and it has the 3 lines....

Then again i didnt have problems running the MC Exploit installer it installed fine .. I just need a PSone Disk for a trigger ...

So am i asking a question a really don't need an answer to ?? LOL :)
