I have read plenty threads regarding playing games on the PS2 HDD. i have read this thread which shows the step by step process
http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/369291

my problem is that the lens of my PS2 is not already working.
I do have a
-HDD 40GB
-Network Adaptor
-Matrix chip install on the PS2 board.

I have managed to install games to my HDD using winhiip that's about 9 games.
How can i boot the games I installed without using any DVDr or CDr.
I know that the only way i can load the games is by using a HD launcher/ HD Advance but where will i install this??

I try installing it like the way i install the games. I install it to my HDD but when i turn my PS2 on the matrix logo showed but after which i only got a black screen.

please help me. i already did everything. I've been removing and attaching my PS2 HDD from the PS2 and enclosure many times already because the HD Loader/HD advance won't work.

Well first are you sure your laser is gone. Does it light up at all?
Have you tried to clean it?

You only really have a couple of choices if your laser won't work.

1. Is to find someone else with an exploited PS2 and have them install Dev 2 - it explains in the tutorial - link
Read the section - Installing DEV2 with a non working laser

Or you can get a Volunteer to install fmcb 1.8 to your memory card.

Yah, the laser is really gone. I have sent it to a PS2 technician last week and he diagnosed that the laser and the board is already not functioning so he ask if i want to make use of my HDD which will be needing a Matrix. I think it would be cool if my games be install on the HDD so I agree. He replace the board ang soldered the Matrix chip. He Places his HDD on my PS2 and it worked well. The gamelist showed. I asked him what software did he use but he said it is the business of his friend and if i want to install games on my HDD i will pay Php.40 per game. I have already paid so much for the rapair. I don't want to waste any cents.

I have a question on the tutorial for installing dev 2.

5. Install ps2 hdd back into your ps2 and run hdl.

how can i run HDL?
I cannot use the second method because I don't have any memory card.

I try the method 1 but still after the Matrix logo showed i have seen only a black screen.

Ok how the Dev 2 works once installed, is when you boot up your PS2 with the Matrix , you need to hold L1 as your booting.

That would then load up uLaunch.elf if installed to hdd0:/_boot.BOOT.ELF

Once you have uLe installed, you can browse to anything and be able to launch hddloader

Looking at your pictures, they have installed it only to the hdd, which you can't access unless you have Hddloader/HddAdvance

If they installed the Matrix Infinity manager, you would be able to access it by pressing Triangle.

Sounds like your best option is to get a memory card and have someone install fmcb 1.8 for you.
