I followed these instructions but whenever I stuck the trigger disc in it just went to the game and not the PS2MENU

Step 01 - Obtaining Your Disc ID
Insert your original PSX game disc into the CD/DVD drive of your PC. This will be your "Trigger Disc," and will be referred to as such from this point forward. Run the IDGET utility. Select the drive letter containing your Trigger Disc. Click on the GET button within the utility. At this point, you will be presented with a disc ID code. You may copy this code elsewhere, or simply leave the IDGET utility's window open on your desktop. There is no harm in doing this.

Step 02 - Creating a TITLE.DB File
Run the Titleman Frontend application.
From within the main interface, click on the CREATE TITLE.DB button.
Using the pull down box in the lower-left portion of the main interface, change the displayed four letter code to match the code given by the IDGET utility. Then enter the numerical value given by IDGET into the entry box to the immediate right of the pull down box. After entering the code data, click on the ADD EXEC button.
At this point, you can click on the LIST CURRENT CONTENTS OF TITLE.DB button. Close the TITLEMAN FRONTEND application. You newly created TITLE.DB file will be in the same folder from which you ran it.

Step 03 - Customizing Your Exploit File
Run the Save Builder application. Open the included EXPLOIT.CBS file. The main interface will now display the contents of the file in the left side of the window. This interface supports drag and drop. Drag your newly created TITLE.DB file into the left of the Save Builder window to add it to the list of files. Now, you may choose any number of the files contained in the EXTRAS folder to also add to the exploit file. save your new file with a unique name or overwrite the original EXPLOIT.CBS file. The filename doesn't matter, provided it's extension is .CBS.

Step 04 - Transfer Your Exploit File to Your Flash Drive

Step 05 - Transfer Your Exploit File to Your Memory Card
Insert you original STORE-BOUGHT copy of Codebreaker into the PS2 and start it. Insert your PS2 Memory Card into Slot 1 of your PS2.
Insert your USB Flash Drive into USB Port 1 of your PS2. From the main Codebreaker screen, select DEVICE MANAGER. Then Select the USB Flash Drive icon. You should now be presented with a screen that lists any .CBS save files on the flash drive. Unless you've been backing-up your games saves to the flash drive with Codebreaker before now, there should be only one file listed. Select the file with the X button, and then press the TRIANGLE button to select an action. Choose copy, and select the Memory Card as your destination. Once copy is complete, you are finished.

Step 06 - Testing the Exploit
At this point, if everything has been done correctly, you should have successfully installed the exploit. Insert your chosen Trigger Disc into the PS2, with your chosen Memory Card in Slot 1, and start the PS2. After a moment, you should be presented with the PS2MENU screen. PS2MENU is a program not unlike the Windows File Manager. It will allow you to run/copy/delete and files present on your Memory Card, Hard Drive, or CD/DVD.

Are you sure you have a trigger disk that is works. There is a list of them that shows 800+.

Well first you press the eject button once cogswap is loaded and then you put in a REAL ps2 game ( it must be bigger than the one you want to load) It will show PS2 DVD or PSX CD or something at the bottom then you use whatever swap method (Swap Magic, flip top, ect.) and you put it in and then press x and it should go.

I have CodeBreaker v9.2b and I have a supported USB drive (actually two of them). When I put them in with the exploit.cbs on the drive and put it in the PS2, CB does not see it. If I then copy over a save from the mem card, the PC does not see it.

What am I doing wrong? I have tried to format as FAT and again CD does see it.

Any ideas???

Thanks

I have found that everything is case sensitive.
If you have lower case file names, and the program is looking for uppercase, it won't run. I had this problem when I was networking my PS2 to my PC..
Use the Independance compiler, It work's just fine. (I don't remember where I got it, but it's out there.)
