The thread i posted this in was too filled with too many different problems so im starting this one.
I'm having a problem. i can get the hdloader to load using the gameshark swap method. i can install the games to the hdd. but when i try to play a game i just get a black screen. any help is appreciated.
Thanks in advance

what games are you trying? Some need options turned on and others will not work no matter what.

Yeah I've tried cd loader. I have burned it at the lowest possible speed (somewhere around 2x) and I still cant get my slide card and swap magic cd to get it running.

no i did not know that you had to do cd loader in order to do this. how much does it cost to buy cd loader, and is it possible to burn it, or will you need cd loader to load a burned copy of cd loader?

you can get cdloader from swapmagicfix.com. They have two versions so you should be covered regardless of your ps2 version. I just got mine to work by using alcohol 120% to re-burn both cdloader and the hd loader.

there is a step by step guide on swapmagicfix.com on how to use cd loader. I will ask this again, GUY44, do you have a modchip or swap magic discs?

guy44,
u cannot burn swap magic as the burnt copy wouldnt work on your ps2 because the ps2 would detect it was a burnt copy.
ynk (reffering to the original question of the topic),
hd loader has a check and it can SOMETIMES give errors by giving a black screen. U can tell if the error is there forever or not by trying to run a game from it. If it happens the first time, chances are that it'll happen all the other times. That's why it is reccomended to just use the original.

Yes, if you buy hd loader you don't need swap magic or any kind of mod. it will just boot up right away in your ps2.

Ok, so you can use the gameshark for ps2ownz version of hdloader...but you can't load the games? I'd like an answer to that also. I was thinking of buying a gameshark 2 to boot the ps2ownz hdloader I just bured. But, in the end if it doesn't work, I won't get it. Can anyone answer Odinstorm's question? I've got a v1 ps2 without a modchip so I don't know if you can load a burned copy...but has anyone tried?

I'm thinking of just buying the original hdloader online. It should work fine for someone like me, but I think that if you get the original hdloader, that it will most likely work fine.

I just found out that HD Loader is discontinued...But there is an HD Advance that just came out. Has anybody gotten it yet? And does it work the same or better?

Its the same exact program, they just changed the names of things. I read they just took the code from the original hdloader, maybe without permission too.
