If I install the newest Firmware onto my new Matrix Infinity chip, is that all I need to do to play backups, or do I need to install a different BIOS?
I just downloaded the updated firmware, its a zip file. To actually update the chip, do I unzip it onto a CD and then just insert it into the PS2?
Yes you unzip it. Then burn it to CD with Alcohol 120%. [bold]1. Open Alcohol 120%. 2. Insert your blank CD-R. 3. Go to File-->Open and browse to the cue file. Double click it. 4. Once it's open under Alcohol 120%, right click the cue file and click image burning wizard. 5. Select your recorder, set the write speed to 4x, the write method to DAO/SAO, the datatype to PS2, and click next. 6. Once it's done, insert the CD in your PS2 and follow the onscreen prompts.[/bold] Alcohol 120%: http://www.free-downloads.net/programs/Alcohol_120_
Installing alcohol 120 wont affect shrink, decrypter, anydvd or nero will it? I have those installed....
When I do this "write method to DAO/SAO, the datatype to PS2, and click next" it changes the datatype from PS2 to Customize. When I change the customeize back to PS2 it changes the write method.
To be honest, the write method isn't all that important with Alcohol 120%. What does it change it to, RAW-DAO? If so that should be fine too.
