[QUOTE="ShadowOne333, post: 9290644, member: 321711"] Good day, Temp community. I know the PlayStation 2 is a niche system by now in terms of hacking and homebrew. I did some cleaning around the house, digging out the Christmas ornaments for the holidays, and happen to find out a very old PS2 (FAT) system that some friends of the family lent me years ago to fix (from what I recall). I removed the dust of it, gave it a quick test, and it wasn't powering on. Long story short, I ended up fixing that issue, and now the PS2 is turning on and working normally up to the menu. However, I found out that the disk drive doesn't seem to be working. It tries to respond to the eject button, but gets stuck, and when I force a disk into it, it seems to be trying to load it, but nothing so far. I tried cleaning the lens and all, but nothing yet. So with that, I was wondering. I know there's a softmod method to make PS2 game loadable through USB. It seems to require a combination of a software called uLaunchELF loaded from disk, then it installs something to make loading through USB possible in the PS2. But, as you can see, I cannot use the disk drive for reading. So my question is, what are my options to install uLaunchELF in the PS2 other than loading it through the disk drive? Do I have any options? Are there other methods to load it it without the DVD drive? Thanks in advance to anyone who takes the time to read this, and for any suggestions! [/QUOTE]
