- You need to have a software called USB Advance or USB Extreme(search the internet or contact me if you can't find it).
- Write this software using DVD Decrypter onto a blank CD-R.
- Insert the disc into the playstation 2.
- You should have a USB Pen drive ready, of capacity minimum 4 GB.
- Alongwith the USB Advance, you will get a software for your PC to convert the downloaded games into the games playable through USB.
- Open the software, browse for a game file, and convert it.
- Now insert the pen drive into your computer and copy the converted game files into the pen drive.
- Remove the pen drive from computer and insert it in your PS2.
- Boot your PS2 with the USB ADvance CD in it and now select the game and press the 'X' button to play!
Feel free to contact me for any detail.[
Frm whr i can download these 2 Softwares for free

The guides are below
http://opl.sksapps.com/index.php?opl=usb_install.html
Basically install the OPL v0.8 to your memory card on PS2, so you can launch it using fmcb 1.8
Then install games to USB drive using the USBUtility 2.0, or you can run games from a Network on your PC
The settings are in the guide and instruction

yep
Create folder called PS2SMB
Inside that folder create two folders CD AND DVD
Inside the DVD folder place your ISO images.
use fixiso - http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1609914/fixiso.exe
to rename the files accordingly - for example GT4.iso is renamed to SCUS_973.28.GT4.iso
The tool does it for you, just place the tool in teh DVD folder with your ISO images and run it.
And for the Network settings in OPL, follow the guide
http://opl.sksapps.com/index.php?opl=config_net.html
For the PS2, you can use uLaunch.elf to see what your PS2 IP address is or set it using PS2NET
When you first run OPL and change settings, then just restart it for the changes to take effect.

Yes
Do you have uLaunch.elf
It is like a filebrowser for the PS2
You copy the OPL from UsB to Mc0 (memory card)
Do you have fmcb 1.8 or is your PS2 modded in any way. Because you first need that before you can use OPL.

It will work, but you need to first buy Swap Magic 3.6 to use with scph-9000x models
Then using Swap Magic, you can load other PS2 applications, such as OPL v.8 which is better than USBAdvance.

Use google translator. I can't understand you and this forum is English.
