check the file in the ps2 browser. the exploit file looks like a regular system config icon in the ps2 browser, except bigger in size.
ps2: v7 scph-39001 - independence exploit - hdloader 0.8c - maxtor 300gb hdd
(+[__]%) psp slim ta-085v1: 6.60 PRO B10

got a whole lot more to list . . .

then you have the exploit on your card. now you know how to load the exploit with ARMAX.
i wouldn't return ARMAX, yet. you still need the i.d. from the psx cd. fortunately, i saw a guide that used the original gran turismo as the trigger disc.

Exploit will be installed into the sys config file as cee43ja1 said. If you guys need ID's for games just go to sonyindex.com
Hey cee43ja1, can any USB drive be used with this ARMAX or is it only the one that came with it?

practically any usb drive can be used. i've used a 128mb and 1gig sony usb drives, and both worked. a small drive is preferred, as ARMAX memory card manager takes a while to load the drive.

I don't know man. It's killing me T_T. I think, I will just return them while I have the time. I appreciate you guys helping all the way from day one to now. But, I guess this is something I can't pull off due to the fact that I don't have what I need. I spent $47+$80+$25=$152 still no where near getting it fixed. I'm not saying you guys aren't doing it. but more like I'm not able to get what needed to make it work. If I go with it..I will have to buy another PSX disc and wait for it..in the end it might not even work who knows? so, i will just return ARMAX and the hdd. Since, I know how to do it this time around. I will remember to get everything right next time. The main reason why I'm trying to quit on it is b/c i really need the money back as soon as possible. I'm having some financial problems and 150 would do help atm.
Thank you so much for your helps guys!
-I just hope I can return them if not..I will be back and finish it off since i will have no choice. Something is better than nothing no?

I was under the impression that you could simply load .elf files off USB drives. After reading through the guide I linked to a couple of posts back. Is this not the case?
@Mazx
Keep us updated man. ;)

you can, but only if you have max media player on ARMAX.

Well let's see. If they charge me to ship it back to them and 15%-20% restocking fee. I might as well go ahead with it. But, I really hate the fact that ARMAX does not have Max Media Player. In that case how the hell am I suppose to trigger the exploits?
The only alternate choice I have is to buy a PSX disc and how would I know if it would work or not?
HG27, you said you can send me a PSX disc..?
I could pay for shipping and w/e it would cost in that case.
I just want to get it over w/it. I think If I send them back they will deduct about $20 or more for restocking fee. So thats $40 buck when I can buy a PSX disc and trigger the exploits with it?
I'm really clueless here...gimme some advice man!!

are there any gamestops or gamecrazys near you? because some of them will carry psx discs for dirt cheap. you'll have to go to the store itself since the online sites doesn't show their used stuff.

I'm in NYC man..there is no way I will be able to get a hold of it anymore. It's too late, Gamestop stop selling them since 2007 or 2006 last time i heard. The only way I can if someone have it or online.

Good news!! Officially I'm able to play backed up games now.
Thank you both for helping me all the way. HG27 i owe you big time man lol for the disc. Much appreciated dude!
Just another couple of questions..
Q1: Can I load backed or burned CD with CDloader.elf just like HDLoader or i will need the slide card?
Q2: Is there any more .elf file that I may need or should look at it?
Q3: What else can I do now with PS2?
Q4: I won't lose my laser after awhile from playing too much of backed up games right?
------------------------------------------
Earlier Post:

Thanks HG27!
I got your disc today.
I made the exploits using PS2 Save Builder and copied onto Memory Card.
I'm able to see LaunchElf v4.12 with options
O:File Browser
Select: Configure
My Save Build:
So what do i do now?
-By the way how do i load burned PS2 network startup disc now?
I need to save the settings...

Glad we could be of assistance.
-Pretty sure you can use cogswap.elf to load CD's and DVD's. You just need an original CD game/DVD game (must have higher TOC values than backup).
-ulaunch, cogswap, hdloader are the main ones. There are so many though, it really depends on what your needs are.
-Play games off USB HD (not recommended), play imports, run cool homebrew (unsigned code).
-Laser should be fine so long as you burn onto quality media and use low burn speeds. My PS2's lasers have not died even though I used swapmagic for like 1 1/2 years.

No there is no other way.
You can get a fliptop which is better than slide card from modchip.ca
They will ship to the states.
You can use cdloader also to play backups, probably would play more than cogswap will.
To use Cdloader.elf
Just launch cdloader
Once it loads up, press EJECT on your PS2 and put in an original High TOC PS2 DVD
Then u have to press (X) when message is displayed.
Another message will appear saying (USE THE EA METHOD), you will notice the disc will stop spinning.
Swap the TOC original game with the backup game using your fliptop or slide tool, then press (X), it takes a while to load, but it will load up.

Thanks but too much to go through again. I'm mad broke after spending so much on this lol close enough to get a new PS3.
I was wondering, would it be possible to run it through hdloader if I ripped them as .iso?
I need to run network Startup disc really bad...without i can't play online.

+1 for the flip-top. That's how I started out, flip-top/swapmagic 3.6 plus.

Just so you know you can't play backups with the hdd online, unless they are games before 2004.

I hate to say but you would have been better off to get Swap Magic 3.6 for $25
Then at least you could play backups plus online by patching.

you can use cogswap to play backups online though after patching the DNAS of course.

@HG27 Thanks for all your +1
And just so you know Codebreaker is cheap on Ebay for like $10-12 and you can use it for exploits also.
It will transfer the save file to mc.

you don't need the network disc to get setup for online. some games will allow you to setup network settings.

Swap magic is good but too much hassle burning cd/dvd and i heard that hurts laser. Thanks for the link, i will take a look.
By the way, can I play stored mp3 from hdd with media player?
Also, converting mdf, mds, bin, cue & daa files to iso should be fine eh? or I can keep it the way they are and hdloader will still recognize it?
I converted some games into iso and they went from 600mb mdf to 80mb in iso format. So kinda wondered if it might come up as corrupted or something?
