Free McBoot on PS2 Slim

Post by ElkinFencer10 »

I've spent the past hour trying in vain to get this god damn program on my PS2 memory card, and I give up. I've tried following tutorials, but they inevitably all tell me to download a program for which I can find nothing but broken links. Here's what I'm working with.

I got the PS2 Slim, obviously. I have a memory card, obviously. I have an Action Replay Max disc and a flash drive. I know how to work the memory manager utility in Action Replay. Can anyone PLEASE tell me what the hell I need to put on the memory card, how to get it, and what to do from there? I'm at my wit's end with this crap. I just want to play imports! :cry:

Have you tried this guide? It helped me a couple of years ago, but I'm not on a computer to verify links.

I didn't own the AR or Swap Magic Disc... plus needed another mem card so I just ordered one off ebay for like $3 more than a standard card.

Once you get it running, chime in on the thread below!!! I'm just now jumping onboard with this about 8 years later than most :lol: :lol: :lol: and updating my progress. I'll be trying the imports NiGHTS game running off the HDD for sure eventually.

@Elkin, Did you ever get this working or order a FMCB mem card off ebay?

I've seen your massive collection... no fat PS2 laying around for HDD loading?

Not sure if you're still working on this project, but I recommend just buying a FMB PS2 memory card from eBay. I think I got mine for $18 USD. It saves a lot of time and headache.
