Hi. I have a 256MB PNY Attache flash drive. I remember in the past it used to work with my PS2. I am home from college and decided to play some PS2 and put the HDLoader .elf files on it to get things under way and found my flash drive won't work. It works on computers, but not on my PS2 anymore. I have formatted it in all formats and retried (FAT, FAT32, NTFS, exFAT) and none work.

I know the PS2 attempts to read it because when I choose mass: the flash drive flashes as if it is being read however rather than showing the files on it the screen just freezes. I cannot cancel, I cannot go back to the menu. It just stays on mass:. Does anyone know how I can get my flashdrive to work again?

Well it is strange if you had it working before on the PS2.

Make sure its FAT32 format.

Don't put it in the PS2 until you have uLaunch.elf running.
Then insert it and wait about 30-60 seconds.
Try again.

If not then I guess you will have to get another flash drive.
