Just installed a 12C508A (mod-chip) in my psx and was detected by a fairly new game.

any ideas? do I need to:

a. install a switch on one of the lines
b. buy something else (I'm sure, but what)


does anybody know what pin (on the mod-chip) the detection islooking for?
:(

If you installed it properly. You shouldn't ask this at all. I suggest you learn more about it then reread it then do the looking process over until you're use to it ;)

What the hell are you talking about xxxStealthxxx the chap asked a valid question and is trying to learn thats the whole point of this forum if you cant help dont reply just to boost your posts.

Spiderman: Have you tried other games and do they work, if so then you need to apply a patch to the game that has the mod detection. What game is it, and what software do you use to burn the games.
Ray:)

Maybe its your modchip? Does other backups work? Try to open your Playstation up and recheck the wires. Resolder loose connections and retry it. Also, try to play the system with another anti-mod game like The Legend of Dragoon

Yes, I burned a copy of "Formula 1" for a friend it worked fine.

Then I tried playing 'Emporer's new Groove' an original PS disk, that's when it detected the chip.

I looked for a patch but could not find one.

I'm using 'CD-R Win' to burn the disks, still playing with what setting to use.

P.S. Thanks for the Defense. :)

I AINT TO FAMILIAR WITH CHIPS - BUT I HAVE GAMES THAT detect my mod chip.

all i have to do is hold the "reset" button for 3 seconds and let the game re-boot. it makes the chip go into the next "stealth mode"

the only game that ever gets detected is spyro - year of the dragon.

try that - it might be the answer

Sounds cool thanks bleepster :tup:

let me know what happens m8!

I installed a 12C508A it had 7 wires from the chip. :)

so, did the 3 second reset help m8????

Hi I burned the same game from original using clonecd thru clony with a 4 wire chip(same number)....alls fine....strange one....I have chipped 50+ psx's and only ever 4 wire them....good luck in finding the solution...

The game more than likely has copy-protection on it, which means that if you aren't using a Stealth mod-chip, then it'll be detected. I would have recommended a Stealth mod-chip, but it's too late for that. :)

The only other thing I could suggest is to go to mega-games.com and get the patches for them. I believe you can do that anyways.

I've always had a stealth, so I've never had it detect my chip.

Sure enough Bleepster that kicked it I got in on the second reset.

I think that this will only work with originals as it turns the mod chip off. For backups of a mod protected game you will need to either patch it or use Import Player to boot the game. You can get both at megagames.
