So you already have backed up games, correct?
Since your system is not chipped you will need to:
A)Get a chip installed
B)Get a boot disc (Swapmagic)
C)Go with a soft mod (Independece Exploit, action replay, etc)

I have never ever had any trouble with swapmagic. Been using it in a 'fat' for like a year, then switch over to a slim. Been using my slim with swapmagic for like 2 years now.

If your going with a chip I can recommend the Duo 3 ultra as it gets the job done, very nicely priced (about $20) and has DEV1/DEV2 support (good if your laser dies). Take in mind though that this chip must be soldered into the system.

As for external chips, I would have to say Memor32. It is a new product that supposed to work as a plug n play mod. Though a down side is that you need to patch every game you burn.

-Here is a review for Memor32.

-Here is a review for the Memento FW (lets you play backups using Memor32).

If you have a fatty then you can just get a slide card. You still have to use a swap disc but it is far less expensive and you dont have to break the seal on your warranty, not that many people care at this point. Ive had a modded fatty and a modded slimline, and the slimeline is slightly my convenient, but both work fine. So yeah, a slide card, google search ps2 slide card and Im sure you will find the answer to your issue.
