I got the Duo2 Chip...
All my DVD based games work but CD based ones like Mashed , Hitman 2 etc. won't get loaded.
I think I saw a similar thread but couldn't find it anymore. Sorry.

I have always had this problem on my v4 ps2.

I had a magic 3 first and it didnt read most cd-r's only some(even some on same cd-r brand worked and some didnt) then i installed a duo2 and it still doesnt read most cd-r's even on good branded media, ps1 originals work and ps2 cd originals but cd-rs dont and never have.

Im not bothered though because i dont use cd-r, i just burn to dvd-r's.

Here are the boot modes from the duo website:

PS2 games

Method 1:
-Press EJECT button to switch on the machine.
-Insert PS2 game in tray.
-Tap RESET button once, the machine would reboot and then load your game.

Method 2:
- Press EJECT button to switch on the machine.
- Insert PS2 game in tray, the press EJECT button to close tray.
- The disc will then take 2-5 seconds to be recognized and then boot.

To boot another game when already playing a game.
- Press EJECT button.
- The current game would then pause and the tray would come out.
- Change to another PS2 game disc and tap RESET button once.
- The machine would reboot and then load your game.

PSX games

- Press EJECT button to switch on the machine.
- Insert PSX game in tray, then press and hold RESET button to switch off machine.
- Now hold the RESET button to start up your machine. Only release the RESET button once the Blue LED light of the Eject button lights up.

DVD movies

- Press EJECT button to switch on the machine.
- Insert DVD movie in tray, then press and hold RESET button to switch off machine.
- Now hold the RESET button to start up your machine. Only release the RESET button until the "blue clouds" comes up on the TV.
