the Toxic OS is the only one i know of that allows you to access the HDD via the browser of the PS2.

Toxic OS is the Operating System that 'Team Toxic' wrote for their chips (the DMS) and it can be used on your HDD as well. any use of the USB connections on your PS2 for games are practicaly useless as they are extreamly slow, more so then reading from the CD/DVD drive.

just the memory card exploit. and then to run the HDLoader program from the HDD you'll have to have it there as an ELF.

even with the memory card exploit, you still need to run a ps1 disc to make it work.

thanks for help so far guys. ive done some research and found out that i can use the action replay evo edition and using memory manager feature to tranfer files from usb stick to memory card, it has been said that some people have done this with the hdloader. Do you know if i can do this with the usb extreme?

also anyone know how i can use the ps2 to access my pc hardrive so i can stream movie and view it with the media player ont he action replay?

ive ordered the action replay evo edition should arrive soon. prb have a play around with it and see what i can do. ie load the toxic os to memory card.

u can copy to memory card, via usb, if u copy the usbextreme into a usb stick using ur pc, then use the action replay evo edition, which u have to buy, and use the memory manger in the action to copy it to the memory card. which means u can also use it too from memory card with the usb extreme cd.

i couldn't make heads or tails outta what klieuless just said, but........unless you have a 650meg memory card it's gonna be hard pressed to put a CD on it :) and even if you did it wouldn't be much worth while, you cant boot it. the only thing that will boot via a MC is an exploit (an .elf) and i haven't seen one to boot to the USB yet.

i check the files in the usb extreme cd and it does have .elf file. i copied the 3 files shown on the cd and it fitted on a 16mb memory stick. i then used my ps2 and it booted up. the strange thing is i was unable to copy games to my hardrive. also had problems transferring the files from the usb to memory card usign the action replay evo edition, memory manager, kept saying no files found, when i checked on my pc, the files are on the usb stick.
