I just bought a fliptop and swap 3.3 set for my v9 ps2 and it wont work. i manage to boot the swap but i tried putting games or movies or audio cd and absolutely nothing works. please help. keeps sayin it's not a valid ps2 disc. i put the dvd disc and then i lift the fliptop and place a game or a movie and nothing. then i tried with the swap cd version, and i put a audio cd and an mp3 cd and nothing still!! I used tdk, memorex,verbatim. all are recorded at low speeds. please help.(oh some are recorded at 8x but the game is at 1x and 2x and nothing)
I am fairly certain that you don't need SM for burned Music. And I know you don't need it for burned DVD's. I don't even think it will boot them. When you boot off of the CD version of SM you do a "Special Boot" right? there are two options. As for the DVD Version, if you are using a "fat" ps2 make sure the disc is in straight. There is a little ridge on the edge of the case that the disc sometimes gets stuck on. It must be perfectly flat. Also, how did you backup your games? It could be the method you used. Also, as Sly said it only works with PS2 games.
