Foreword: After a year and a half later, I have decided to re-write this guide, because honestly, it was not my own and it was presented very poorly. Remember, I do no support piracy. Use the USB method to play your games on the hard drive to help your PS2 laser last longer. The performance will vary, but that is up to you if you want to stick with it. (6-13-09) VersatileIMPORTANT NEWS (5-1-10): It seems that there are a lot of dishonest users on the Internet that are copying this guide without giving credit back to me, Versatile. Because of this, I will be looking to update all the pictures in this article to have a watermark. We have an active team scouring the net for those who have copied this article.
If caught, we will be forced to take action against you. This is your warning. – VersatileRevisions:Update: 1/15/08 I have gotten Viewtiful Joe 2 to copy to my hard drive, and I was able to boot off the hard drive and play it on the PS2. Now my laser will live longer! All help will be given in the comments as usual.Update 2/13/08 Added link to SKS Apps. Without that site, this tutorial is nothing.
?Update 7/13/08 Added 2 new youtube videos of my own!Update 11/25/08 I am so frickin sick of people asking why their game doesn’t work and all they see is a black screen. Is it because your game isn’t compatible? Check out this list below and stop whining, or use swap magic and ditch the whole USB hard drive all together. The USB 1.1 performance IS NOT WORTH IT in my eyes.Update 6-8-09 Re-wrote the whole tutorial. Will expand upon the USB Extreme GUI interface software at a later date.Update 6-12-09 Re-wrote major sections of the tutorial again to make it more clear.Update 6-13-09 Added new Youtube Video tutorial on the USB Extreme Windows Installer!Update 6-28-09 Added new Youtube Video tutorial on list of selectable games!Update 12-18-09 Here is another source for finding compatibility list:Update 12-25-09 Fixed the instructions, I left some important notes out.Note: USB advance is in last column.

Enjoy!Update 1-9-10 Added free mcboot video.Update 9-24-12 Removed old video tutorials.Update 9-25-12 Added new video tutorial.Update 12-6-12 Fixed video tutorials to be consistent.IntroductionThe PS2 is a great console. After 9+ years, it is still going strong.
With the new $99 price point, more and more people are getting the PS2 to play old school PS2 games. What better way to preserve your games and your PS2 laser than playing off the USB interface? This guide is based off of Swap Magic implementation.
Wait, you can play games off the USB interface?Yes, you can but it requires some work. Here are the PROs and Cons:Pros. Uses USB 1.1 interface (slow but better than nothing). Saves strain on PS2 laser because using USB interface for game playing. Can have a list of selectable games in the USBExtreme interface.
Works on both fat and slim PS2. Novelty factor is awesome!Cons.
Game compatibility is low. Requires USB hard drive. Highly recommend USB drives that have their own power adapter.
Flash drives can work, but the performance is so horrible its not worth doing it. Need to have third party tool to launch the “boot CD”. This can be done with modchip, swap magic, or exploited memory card. DVD9 games (like God of War 2) are larger than 4.4 GB and will not work with USBExtreme.What tools do I need to make this work?Hardware/Software tool: You need to have at least one of the items below before we continue:.
Modchip. Swap Magic. Exploited memory card (such as Free McBoot)IMPORTANT: For this guide, I will be using Swap Magic 3.6 CD to boot the USBExtreme disc!Blank Media:. 1 CD-R (700MB is fine)Note: I highly suggest swap magic if you are unwilling to mess with the other options.
You can learn more about swap magic at this guide:Download the Software below (more detailed instructions to follow):Usb Xtreme: Optional. Get this if you want to use the graphical user interface for easier format/game installing.Usb Advance: This is required. What should I use for the USB mass storage device?This is what I recommend:. USB 2.0 hard drive that uses its own power supply (for example, it requires power from the outlet). A USB hard drive that is at least 10 gigs or larger is highly recommended.
The average PS2 game size will vary from as low as 282 MB up to as high as 4483 MB or 4.483 GB. Do not use laptop external hard drives which gets its power from the PS2 USB 1.1 port. It is not enough power. You could use pen or usb flash drives, but performance will be horrible. The game will chug, and you will have ridiculously long load times, that is, if your game can load!Note: I understand when going through this tutorial, you may see that your PS2 may not see your USB hard drive enclosure. If that is the case, please try a different USB hard drive.
I have people verifying this may fix the issue. Tutorial Begins here.drools.:. Extract the USB Advance zip file that you downloaded earlier into its own folder. You will see contents like the screenshot below:.
Now double-click the USBAdvance-PC-Software. You will see two programs inside it: ulformat.exe and ulinstall.exe. Extract these to your C. This will make more sense later. Notice there is a.bin and a.cue file. The.cue file is 1KB, and the.bin file is 34 MB. You need to burn the image file.
Use Nero, PowerIso, Alcohol120%, ImgBurn, or any other type of CD burning software and burn this image file to your blank CD-R disc. Once the CD-R is burnt, label it and set that disc aside.

Now extract the other zip file called “USBExtremewininst” to its own folder. You will now have a program called USBExtreme.exe. A dedicated section to this program will be covered later in this tutorial.Now go to preparing the USB hard drive step.
Preparing the USB hard drive:. Insert USB hard drive to your PC. It is important that the USB hard drive is FAT32. If it is not, go to My Computer, right click the USB drive, and go to quick format for FAT32. If your hard drive is FAT32, great.
No need to format it again. You can also launch the USBExtreme Software, go to the format tab, and tell it to format your USB drive as well as shown below. Here the I: drive is my USB drive.Note: If you want, but not required, you can use the ulformat.exe command to format your USB hard drive.
This is how to use it:. Go to Start - Run. Type “cmd” and press enter.
Go to your C: root. The command to use the program is “ulformat X format” where X is your USB hard drive.
Example: My USB hard drive is E. I would type “ulformat E format”.We are almost done. Let’s enable fast transfer speeds on your USB drive before we start copying games.
Enabling fast USB hard drive transfer speeds:. Go to My Computer-Properties-Hardware-Device Manager-Disk Drives-(external one here)-Properties-Policies-Optimize for performance. Speed varies from from 1MBps to about 10-15MBps, which is pretty fast!
Also, do not forget to unplug the device the proper way (that is Unplug or eject hardware) when you remove the USB drive!Installing games onto your USB hard drive:This is pretty easy. We have two methods. Method one uses the “ulinstall.exe” command, and method 2 uses the USBExtreme.exe windows software. Both programs do the same job, and the second program is easier to use for those who are novices.
? Method 1: Using the command line. Insert your PS2 game into your computer’s DVD drive.
Go to Start - Run. Type “cmd” and press enter.
Navigate to your C: drive. The command to use here is “ulinstall SourceDrive TargetDrive GameName CD/DVD”.Example:. I insert Viewtiful Joe PS2 game into my computer. To verify if your game is CD or DVD format, right click on the disc and go to properties.
If the file size is less 700MB or less, then it is CD format. Anything else and it is DVD. My DVD drive has letter H. My USB drive is I.
At the command prompt on my C: drive, I type “ulinstall H I ViewtifulJoe DVD”. Press enter and it will start copying the game. See picture below:. Here it will copy the game from my DVD drive to my USB drive and prepare it in the special USB game playing format.Method 2: Using the USBExtreme Windows SoftwareLaunch the software.
Insert your game. Configure the “Gamer Installer” window for your game and click start. It will start ripping the game.Example:My DVD drive is letter H. My USB drive is I. The name of my game is The Bouncer. The type of disc I am ripping from is DVD.After you click Start, it will prompt you:Click Yes, and then it will start ripping the game from DVD drive to the USB hard drive:When the rip is done, you will see a screen like the one below:Repeat the process over and over for additional games and you will get a list as shown below. When you load the USB drive from the PS2, this list will be selectable.Finally you are done.
Let’s play on the PS2!. Turn on PS2.
Load your Swap Magic CD disc. At the main Swap Magic screen, load your USB Advance CD-R that you burnt earlier. Now you will be at the USBExtreme screen. Connect USB hard drive to PS2. Turn it on, within a few seconds, you will see your game(s) show up on the screen.
Highlight your desired game, press “X”, and within 7 seconds your game will load! Enjoy!Troubleshooting1) Make sure to make your USB hard drive partition a primary. I am not sure if it needs to be logical drive, but I made my drive a primary partition.Visit SKS Apps.

You don’t talk about your favorite games here and you especially don’t ask someone whether they got your emails. Think before you post and add almost everything you have in mind in a single post.
And try to careful to not to double post!Keep in mind, comments are almost like FAQs.I recommend you all to talk about off-topic stuff via IMs. Just swap your ids with eachother!PS: If you used yahoo messenger, feel free to add me. My yahoo name is ‘raycodebroken’. Hi Dustin, i had the same problem as yours. I have the same modchip on my ps2.
The reason why u get the black screen is due to the macro vision fix enabled on ur modchip. To disable it, boot your ps2 without any disk, and as soon as u press the power on button press triangle and circle at the same time.
U will enter in a menu with many options, look for macro vision fix there and disable it. This should work now, i dont know why your ps2 does not read tht disk. Still try it, and if still it does not work, try burning a new cd. Hi!Works perfect for me:D. I’ve had my PS2 & SwapMagic 3.6 for many years and never been disappointed.However, after switching my TV in the room, the burned discs couldn’t read PAL anymore and so I packed away my PS2 and lived on the glorious moments we shared.But now, after some room cleaning, I eventually came across my old SwapMagic, which led me to my PS2 and after that my spirit burned intensly and I became eager to play some old favorites (SC, FF-series, GTA etc.)But then I wondered, how much longer would my PS2 last?
(considering its age and the abuse of the slidetool) And it was at that point I finally recognized the 2x USB-ports:O. I wondered what the heck they could be used for so I googled a bit and came straight into this awesome guide.Long story short – Works perfect following your steps! Now I just have to find my old memorystick but manthe PS2 sounds much happier when it doesn’t have to chew on a disc ?Thanks and cheers from Sweden!Josefps. Haven’t tried PS1 games on my PS2 yet, got tons of em´ just laying on the floor and chillin´;D ds.
