I have got the info and files from swapmagicfix.com and some other sources and I have made 6 disks using slight variations from all the info I have got, the exploit has loaded to my mem card, but when I use my psx cd it just loads up the game.
I can not find a straight answer to this anywhere just loads of conflicting info. does any one know how to get this working or of anywhere I can get it on disk ( by giving my disk id). I have smcd/ dvd but the smcd is a pain in the arse to get working.
(ps.I don't want to get a mod chip.)

I have just got the mem card exploit working, just put in the psx game then it boots up to the cogswap screen straight away, it does involve more disk swapping, but as my sm3cd keeps returning to the browser I don't mind that, I'll still use smdvd to boot dvd games though (even though that plays up sometimes), the problem was using titleman in the doss prompt I dl'd titleman frontend and it worked perfectly.

Here is what I did,
First get the cogswaploader exploit files from here, http://home.rochester.rr.com/ps2ownz/exploit.html
And cdloader here, http://www.swapmagicfix.com/
Then go here, http://www.ps2ownz.com/forums/showthread.php?t=19192&highlight=card+exploit
And get the cdloader exploit.zip from allucard and titleman.zip in the same thread.
Extract the zip file from swapmagicfix, and the cdloader exploit and titlemanfrontend zip files, look in the cdloader folder for the junk.dat file copy and paste into the cogswaploader folder, that is the only file you need from the cdloader folder.
Use titlemanfrontend to create the title.db using the id (the sles-xxx.xx) from your psx trigger game.
Follow the instructions here, http://home.rochester.rr.com/ps2ownz/exploit.html for making the cd image using CDGenPS2 , but before you add the title.db add the junk.dat file, after you add the title.db create cd image.
Burn the cd image using alcohol at 4x or slower.
You will need to use swapmagic cd or some other method of loading backups to load the mem card exploit, when it has finished loading onto your mem card reset the ps2 insert your trigger psx disk and wait for the message ?psx cd rom?, then you can load either cd backups or dvd.
Cd load: at the psx cd rom message eject the disk and insert higher toc ps2 disk, when message changes to ps2 cd rom and the disk on-screen turns blue use your flip top/ swipe card to change to your backup disk, press x and it will load after a couple of seconds.
Dvd load: at the psx cd rom message use your flip top/ swipe card to change to the cdloader disk, press x, when you here the disk slow right down press x again, when cdloader loads eject and swap for higher toc dvd disk, wait for the message ?change disk and press x?, press x with toc disk still in the ps2 then it will say change disk by ea method, use your flip top/ swipe card to change to your backup disk then press x.
hope this isn't to confusing, it sounds like a lot of effort, but when you get used to it you will find it's a lot more reliable than smcd/dvd.

So let me get this straight. The memory card exploit in the end actually just lets you boot your backup CD/DVDs by using an original PSX game instead of the Swap Magic discs all of the time?

Ive had yellow and red ones,
any help or readme would be appreciated
#edit
by the way, are u referring to instructions for cdloader or cogswap, as i cant get cogswap working, im referring to cdloader above,
can u use cdloader to load dvd backups (single layer/4.5gb)?

kamatari,
have you looked at this http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/1/94194
sajid1201,
those colours mean you have a bad burn, try different media and make sure the burn speed is set at 2x orless, and yes you can use cdloader to load dvd based backups,
boot cdloader, eject and insert higher toc dvd original, wait for bottom left of screen to say "ps2 dvd" (or somethin similar) then press x, wait for the message "change dvdr by ea method" (or somethin similar), then swap for your dvd backup and press x.

you dont need cd loader to boot dvd games, cogswap can do it. just open the tray with the blue button when "psx cdrom" appears, put in vice city or some other high toc game, wait til "DVD ROM" appears, hit X, the disc will turn from gold to purple and then use whatever method you want to switch the disc (whatever method you want doesnt include the blue button) the only dvd game ive came accross that cogswap wont boot is splinter cell 2, for this use cd loader.

The exploit lets u play cd/dvd backups without swap magic disks although you'll need it in the first place to install the exploit. Then u can use a psx game to act as ur swap magic disk.

I just got the swap magic 3.2 discs and tried burning the hdloader exploit but nothing boots up at all. I even tried burning the cdloader .bin and .cue files but they wont boot either. I am using Nero 6 to burn these files onto Home Depot cdrs. I'm guessing that one of the problems could be the cdrs, so what brand of cdrs should I use?
