I have a Ps2 slim without chip or any mods.
I have connected a usb hdd wich i have transfered games too with usbadvance and usbextreme.
But i cant seem to make a cd/dvd too boot, i have downloaded some cd iso and dvd iso wich is soposed to be bootale into my hdd, but it dosent work.

What do i have to do to play my hdd games on the ps2?
Anyone got a working boot cd i can download, or any help how to make my own. By the way i dont have any Mc card.

I'm pretty sure you got it all right except for one important thing. Since your PS2 isn't modded you will need an alternative way to boot burned games or applications such as HDLoader. I use Swap Magic 3.6. My PS2 doesn't have a mod chip so that is the only way I can boot burned games or apps. Another way of booting burns is the MC Exploit via a PS1 game. But in order to get the exploit to your memory card you would still need a way of booting the exploit disc. I recommend getting Swap Magic 3.6 I am a noob too and I mastered it pretty quick. It is very easy to use. The CD .iso and DVD .iso you burned work but you need a way of booting them. Swap Magic 3.6. I hope this answers your questions. Peace.

Thank you for fast answering. Is it possible to download and burn swap magic, or do i have to buy it?

Yeah dude, you have to buy it. Believe me everything your thinking, I thought of to and tried and failed. So yeah just buy Swap Magic 3.6 and you won't regret it. I say to buy Swap Magic because it is the cheapest way to play burns on your PS2. But if you have the money I would say to get a modchip installed. There are a couple of forums here on afterdawn that will give you better insight on what the best modchips are and where to get them. Hope this helps. Lates.
