Hello.

I have an old PS2 with a Neo2 boot chip (need to swap when I want to play backup-games). Now I am tired of swapping when I want to play backup-games, so I want a Network adapter and a HD loader. I have a 40 GB IBM HDD that I want to put in my PS2. But is it possible to load the HDloader from the Memory card, because I don't want to swap with action replay every time I want to start the HDloader :)

Hope someone can help me.

Thanks for the link.

I don't want to make a flip-top, so can I use the slide card method instead? And do I only need to do it once, and then I just can load the HDLOADER from the memory card?

yes you can do the slide card............and once a MC Exploit is added to your memory card you'll not have to reload it again (unless you delete the 'system configuration' file from the MC) and you don't have to do any swapping again, just leave the trigger disk in the console for as long as you want to boot off the HDD, the only thing you'll have to do is turn the console on/off.

as long as your loading your games via your PC (and you will be because of your backups) you'll never have a need to open the CD/DVD tray on the console again as long as you continue to play off the HDD.
