Well I probably waisted my time and my money but I am going to go ahead and see if this works and if it does what I am doing wrong. I read instructions on how to make swap magic work with launchelf by putting launchelf on a usb drive and then inserting the swap magic disc. It tells me once the menu for swap magic comes up to push the L2 button and the up button on the d-pad to go to file browser. I can never make this happen so I was guessing that I did not understand it correctly. The ps3 is recognizing the usb drive because I can see what is on the drive but when you click on the drive it says there is nothing compatible in the folder. This is probably because I never did get swap magic to work properly. I sure would appreciate some help on this one guys. Got all the other consoles to play my backups, now if I can just get down on this ps3 I will be a most happy camper. Thanks for your input here it will be appreciated greatly.
