Hey guys, how is work on getting MX4SIO working on the deckard ps2 (specifically the 90001 model)?

Ok, I'm going to wait and see if someone confirms that Kingston works fine and then I'm gonna buy a 32gb uSD and hope for the best

Oh shit... Can you believe that they just don't exist on my country? No one sells them, and I don't think that buying one from outside my country is worth it. Has someone tested any other brand that works? Does Kingston work fine?

Ok. With all the recommendations, I tested my PCB, and I think it works. I could only test 3 of my 6 aviable SDs (just cuz i lost my uSD to SD adapter :/), and i have to say that i got some interesting results. The only SD card that works, is the oldest one, and smallest one. Its a kingston...

I actually didn't. I'm gonna try as soon as I'm back at home. What were the keys I had to press to disable it on boot? You are right. I just launched the standalone elf on the PS2. But, is there supposed to be any output on screen? And why does it crashes? Is it because it times out? Also, does...

Thanks! here it is:

Is it ok if i upload my schematic here and you check if it seems ok? I dont want to bother you

Dont worry about the leds, they're in the correcto orientation. I already have OPL v1.0.0 installed on my memorycard, and its config files are present. Are there any features that are missing on this bdm3 version that could be conflicting with my already present config? or that shouldnt be an...

Hey guys. I just finished making my prototype PCB using the provided manuals. I designed my own PCB to be manufactured at home, and easy to solder too. Feel free to ask me for the pcb files! (untested for now) The only thing that its failing me now, is my PS2. Whenever I try to run any .elf...

If you want I can share you my PCB design wich I designed to be manufactured at home with single-layer PCBs

Wow, thanks for the explanation! That way of using transistors blew my mind! I think that im going to use the BC847B transistor, since im familiar with the BC547 and there is stock of it on my local electronics supplier. I have only one little question. Isn't the transistor going to get...

Guys, I was about to start designing my own version of the PCB, but i decided to look to the case first, and i noticed that the "ramp" there is on the case is quite substancial compared with my memorycard (clone). Im thingking that it has to do with the PCB thickness. On my clone MC, its exactly...

Hey guys, I was wondering if someone could tell me if changing R22 (R7 in the photo) from being a pull-up to a pull-down can affect the sd card or anything else. This is why I ask: Since I want to use an N mosfet to drive the data trasmission LED, using a pull-up would make the LED stay...

Sorry, fixed! (the preview dosent works :/)

Also, taking a look at both MOSFET circuits (for the /ACK and the CD), I was wondering why are those 10ohm resistors prior to the gate of the mosfet. As far as I know, mosfets dont require a resistor in series with the gate. My guess is thet it "isolates" different parts of the circuit, but im...
