Hi there,

Ive just chipped my v7 ps2 today with an infinity mod chip.

Basically while chipping the ps2 I must have accidentally splashed a bit of solder on the lazer ribbon right at one of the ends on the contact points.
I got it off best I could but it still didnt look right so I used one out of another ps2.

It worked fine.

Now here's the funny part... I thought while i've got the ps2 open and working I might as well try this lazer ribbon to see if i've damaged it,(thinking that if it didnt work it wouldnt cause any damage). Put it in, switched on and got a crackling noise for a sec then got a language selection window in BLACK AND WHITE then after ive set that it just says error wrong disk. Same happens when I put the undamaged ribbon in aswell.

Anyone know what ive done? Have I blown the lazer or the graphics chip maybe?

Gutted with myself for trying it, friend is picking it up soon aswell dont know what im gonna say!!
