Hey guys, I just finished reading this post and became extrememly interested in this HD Loader thing as it doesnt need a mod chip to play games i download soo... like al other newbies here i have a question.
from my understand of this is that all i need a any computer maxtor hdd,ps2 (mines pal),ps2 network adaptor and HD lOader?
oh and since my ps2 is pal with this HD Loader and harddrive and the other stuff can i just play pal games or all other regional games? i.e. NTSC or JAP

THanks in Advance!

Hi people!
OK, I have one question, I used HDL dumb and the game transferred perfectly, but now for some reason I cannot just access the HD to retrieved files moved to the HD etc (yes its a ps2 hd). Just wondering if this is normal b/c if it is then its no big deal but would extracting the games to my pc and then placing them back on after using the PS2 HD format software help? Thanks.

Hi and welcome to our forum,

Normally you shoud be able to see the PS2 HDD with the HDL Dumb utility, i would suggest to use instead WinHIIP and see if this will solve your problems!

Hi! I'm Italian, I'v got a big problem with my ps2 HDD. I tryed to save the Champions of norrath iso in my HDD with WinHIIP but at 100% it crashed. Now WinHIIP crashes everytime I select the hard drive, HDL Dumb doesn't see any of the game that I previously installed, and HD Loader says there are no games installed ad dosn't install any game cause there are no free space......
I think I need some sort of program that can format the HDD or fix this type of problem....
PLEASE SOMEONE HELP ME....

Hi, i would suggest posting your problem to the WinHIIP forum and contact the author for futher help, there are already several versions released and maybe this can fixed with a newer one

hey guys, i have another question about the HD Loader. i've heard form my friend that say if i get a copied version of HD Loader it wont work on my ps2 unless its modded? then he said something about putting the hd loader in my memory card and then it will boot from the memory card? someone shine a light down my pitch black tunnel and lead me out?

(in reply to deviljr)

Yes that could be the main way to use the copied version of HD Loader, but i don't know the exact details how to make this, searching around google might give more help

(in reply to deviljr)

Why not just buy it from their website...I would buy it in order to support them instead of download it they risk putting it out we could atleast buy it...thats just how i feel

There are two versions, one for PAL and one for NTSC, so choose what you need!

(in reply to samsamw)

You can format the drive under Windows Device Manager!
