It works fine on PS2, the thing is not all games are compatible.

Some games the intro and movies skip or are very slow, but gameplay is fine.
Some get to the loading screen but then freeze, so you may have to Swap the DNAS or IOPRP image to get them too work.

Here is a link for a how too:

Hello

So you have formatted your hdd with FAT32

Then you have transferred games to hdd using the USB Extreme Win32 utility , and they don't appear in the USBAdvance screen.

Ok you can't burn CD using a multisession for PS2

You need to burn this one to CD for it too work from CD.
http://www.sksapps.com/hd/USBAdvance.rar

The uLe 4.08 you have is specially made with other ELF files on it, so yes you can use the USBadvance from it.

But you need to have your USB drive plugged into PS2 and turned on for it to recognize it.

They are applications to use on your pc using the DOS COMMAND in windows.

It explains them in this tutorial
http://sksapps.com/index.php?page=usbadvance.html
Its better to use the USB Extreme Win32 utility to format hdd and Install games to hdd, or use USB Insane

To burn your ISO, just use Nero and select "burn image" or use Alchol 120, or imgburn if you like.

How can i use memory card to boot hdd of ps2 without any disc(cd/dvd)...........i tried usbadvance on my bro ps2 also,it didnt worked but i managed to load usb_war.elf file by the help of ulaunchelf with which usb advance was working but still it didnt worked directly(my ps2 shows blank screen when i load elf).I tried mercenaries 2 from hdd but it hanged on usbadvance loading screen.
im trying other games and ill inform u about it,but tell me how to boot usbadvance using memory card only(w/out cd/dvd).

Sumthing is wrong with my console as it cant load usbadvance by disc,even it is moded.My model is scph-7006,ive heard on other forums that the problem is of macrovision thing....do u have any idea about it?

First we need to know what type of modchip you have.

Then I can tell you if you can copy to the mc and boot from it or not.

As for some games not loading properly with USBAdvance.elf, that is because not all games are compatible.

So then you need to change the DNAS or IOPRP image in the ISO.

The links I gave in my first post tell you how to do that.

Ok here is an example say if you had a "Matrix Modchip"
http://sksapps.com/index.php?page=matrix/matrix_tut.html

It tells how to add files to mc by using DEV1 mode.
It has a "Infinity Manager" one installs to PS2.

Also tells how to disable "macrovision" under Configuring the Matrix Infinity Menu.

Another example is say if you have a DMS4 chip and using "Toxic Bios" as the manager.
http://sksapps.com/index.php?page=dms4/Toxic/toxic_tutorial.html

It again allows you to use DEV1 among other things.

See what I mean, hard to help you out if you don't know what modchip you have?

I can't help you with that.

Ok first the usbadvance.elf is on this page:
http://sksapps.com/index.php?page=hd.html

scroll down to USBADVANCE

At one time there was a really good USB compatibility site, but it doesn't exist anymore.
This one here will tell if some games work or not with USbAdvance.
http://list.sksapps.com/

you can go to my folder
Password: windrider

and you should find the cd/dvd gen iso) or any other files you might need.

Yes the snes and nes , pgen work off the hdd just fine.

There are tutorials around somewhere.

Thanx for all ur help,i used mc boot on my bro`s ps2 and it worked just fine,i read the application and i can now modify it as i like it and i have loaded many .elf files on my hdd bcoz of dat.All is done except only one thing is left and dat is the DNAS problem.
i dont know y my ps2 cudnt mc boot and launch elfs from hdd.

the purpose of dnas is dat to replace the iopr*.img or dnas*.img of the original iso with the modified one(i already downloaded all the .img from sumwhere) isnt it and make the iso of the new contents??????????Isnt it?and then rip it on hdd.

Again Thanx a lot for ur help.

Ok this method may not work on all games, and some may not ever play off the USB drive.

Some games don't have the DNAS image so you replace the IOPRP one with one of the same size.
On some games there are 2 IOPRP images, sometimes there is an DNAS and IOPRP image.

So that being said, you may have to change one or more of them to get it too work.

It is sometimes quite a hassle to get some games to work.
And there are some games that need nothing done to them to work fine.

see i have tekken 5 ripped on hdd which obviously dont work so when i checked the dvd i saw no dnas img but it had iopr img.So i already have files downloaded(dnas and iopr).What shud i do now,shud i replace the iopr(of game) with dnas(working one downloaded) and rename it to iopr, or shud i replace the iopr with iopr(working one).

The turtorial i read was a lil confusing cuz i cundt understand wat he is trying to point at.

Note:*Tekken 5 has ioprp300.img,what shud i replace it with?

You can try first with replacing the IOPROP image with another IOPRP image and see if that works.

What the tutorial is saying is if you find a DNAS image , then to change it with an IOPROP image and rename it to DNAS image.

Wow you have been busy while I was sleeping, lol.
Well that is good you have matrix infinity now. That is cheap or at least in my money would be.

I am glad you you have everything working.
Sorry about you and your brother, but I understand how family can be.

Yes, just try different images of same size and hopefully it will work. It can sometimes take a few seconds of blank screen before game actually loads if it is going to work.

I am from Alberta, Canada.
Let me know how it goes.
