    PS2 Ultra Slim

    I see the problem here: you have the reset pad soldered to ground. It should be connected to the N.O. (normally open) contact on your push button. When you press the button, the reset pad should make contact with ground. Additionally, you have both contacts of the push button tied to ground. One...

    PS2 Ultra Slim

    Do you mean the lid switch? When there is no lid switch you can skip that step (cutting the trace). Can you explain "not getting power" more, please? If you mean you cannot power it on. You need to ground the reset pad with a pb. Read up on this thread it's covered a few times with some...

    Question Power Issues on Two Boards

    I had an issue with a 79k recently where the 5V regulator was getting really hot (circled in the pic). This happened after the board was trimmed, and I had powered it on for a while during testing of the MX4SIO and ModBo install. Everything was working, and I didn’t notice anything until the fan...

    PS2 PMS

    Thank you! Correct me if I'm wrong, but we could use this on all those PS2 consoles with the power issue (red light to green light back to red, or just a red light). I'm thinking it would be easier to get those consoles up and running by using a regulator board like this one. The power is...

    PS2 Ultra Slim

    @DoeKe Thank you for that information! I have been wanting to add threaded inserts to my resin shells but was hesitant to do so. Another thing I about the resin shells is that they are easily dissolved by IPA. I was working on the board and spilled some IPA on my work mat, and the shell...

    Release Ps2 voltage regulator board

    @Customledmods Thank you for your work on this! I am currently building your board as well as Legend's. I got a bit confused about which project I was working on because I had purchased the parts for your board a while ago. Unfortunately, I didn’t bookmark the thread. When I returned to...

    Release PS2-PSU

    @Legend I got the components from DigiKey and am now working on getting a board made. Thank you so much for your work on this! This will be super helpful for troubleshooting, and I’m also interested in building a really small console. Holy cow, this stuff is so much fun, and I’m only playing...

    Question Power Issues on Two Boards

    I agree with Legend on this. I have 3–4 boards I got from eBay that were DOA, and all of them have good fuses. They’re not easy to troubleshoot because when they fail the power-on cycle, they just turn back off again. You either get the "Red to Green to Red" sequence or just the red light with...

    PS2 Ultra Slim

    That’s awesome you got it to work! Nice! When I get a chance, I’m going to load up the version you posted and play around with it. It really should be as simple as formatting the microSD in exFAT, dropping your ISOs in the DVD folder, configuring OPL, and you’re done! I’ll have to do it using...

    PS2 Ultra Slim

    @DoeKe Now it's making sense as to what was going on. Ha! I think you've got it now. Another thing to note is that the MX4SIO doesn't always show up right away on that version of OPL because the default is USB. You have to use the D-pad to select the next location. Format your microSD card as...
