How To Install Mod Chip Ps2 Fat Box
Hello fellow ps2 lovers!! So i was in my garage scrounging around, and i suddenly found my old ps2, the old fat one,! I plugged it in straight away and it booted up to some game i think it was ratchet and clank. Anyway, i opened it up to switch the game and noticed it was burnt game. Meaning my parents had bought me a modded ( or got an original modded ) when i was younger.
- Playing copied PlayStation 2 (PS2) games used to be impossible without installing a modchip. Modchips, which must be connected to the motherboard with a soldering iron, are difficult to install and can damage the laser. In some locales, modded PS2s are even illegal.
- Connect the USB media to the PS2’s USB port. Now boot the ULaunchELF CD on your PS2, by using a mod chip or swap magic. (Free Mcboot users can load ULaunchELF from the Free Mcboot menu) The ULaunchELF Browser controls: Up and down to navigate through files or directories O = Select file or directory Triangle = Browse back or exit menu.
Un-hackable PlayStation 3 console has finally been hacked. Just you need to plug in a PS Jailbreak Mod Chip USB and have to install a backup application to create backup copy of PS3 Game Disc on external USB storage. Lets see how to jailbreak PS3 step by step.
For educational purpose only, try this guide at your own risk we will not be held responsible for any lose or damage.
First, what you need to jailbreak PS3
- PlayStation 3 (FAT or SLIM) with installed Firmware version 3.41 or above.
- Download Backup Manager and put it on an external USB storage that is FAT32 formatted.
- Need to purchase PS Jailbreak Mod chip from here.
How to Jailbreak PlayStation 3
Step-1
- Make sure there there isn’t any disc in the Blu-ray drive.
- Switch off your PS3 console
- PS3 Slim : Disconnect the power cord from the back of the PS3 Slim console.
- PS3 FAT : Use rear switch to switch Off PS3 FAT console.
Step-2
Now connect the PS Jailbreak Mod Chip USB in any USB port of PS3 console.
Turn ON the PS3 console and then press immediately the Blu-ray drive “Eject” button.
Notice the LED lights on PS Jailbreak Mod Chip USB and there should be two Red and Green LEDs turned ON while loading console.
If Red LED remains ON then there is something wrong and repeat the step1-2 again.

If the Green LED remains ON it means you are good to go for the next step of PS3 Jailbreak process.
Step-3
Now connect the external USB drive that have Backup Manager setup file on it.
Step-4
Navigate to “Game Menu” and select “Install Package Files” option then select the “manager.pkg” file that you have downloaded and copied on external USB drive. This will install the Backup Manager.
Step-5
Once the “Backup Manager” installed successfully then select “Backup Manager” from “Game Menu” and press “X” button to run.
Step-6
After running “Backup Manager” now you are ready to create and backup copy from a PS3 Game DVD. Put a PS3 game DVD in the drive and press “O” to start creating backup copy of game on internal hard disk drive or on the external USB drive.
To start playing game from that backup copy of the game available on your external or internal drive, you need to insert any original game DVD into the drive to just “emulate the loading process”.
Navigate to “Game Menu” and run “Backup Manager” (that you have installed in step-4). Select a game that you have backed up and press the “X” to install it. You can delete previously created back up by pressing “/”.
This will return to main menu where you can see the game is installed and ready to be played without having game disc in the console drive.
NOTE: While you are playing game through backup of a game, don’t remove the PS Jailbreak Mod Chip USB from the console.

FreeMCBoot is one of the most tried and tested softmod methods you can find. Once you have a memory card that is FMCB‘ed, the PS2 will detect it on the Memory Card and boot it up. This guide will show you how to create a Memory Card capable with FMCB capabilities, as well as explaining how it will work. An exploited memory card will work on all versions of the PS2.
This softmod requires access to a console has already been modded, which will be used to transfer the mod data to the Memory Card.
Back up the Memory Card you wish to install FreeMCBoot on. If something goes wrong during install, you could potentially lose your game saves.
You must have either of these:
- A hardmodded PS2 console (had a chip installed to give it modded abilities).
- An original (Fat) PS2 with FreeHDBoot softmod installed on it.
- An already existing, working FreeMCBoot Memory Card.
How To Mod Ps2
You also need:
- A computer (operating system does not matter).
- A USB removable storage drive (512MB or more).
- An 8mb Memory Card (official 8mb is preferable, third party is a risk).
You also need the following software (all free):
- FreeMCBoot (original).
- uLaunchELF or other ELF launcher (supplied by existing mod).
The FreeMCBot package comes with a file that ends with .ELF. ELF file are executable by a modified PlayStation system, and in the package provided comes with a FreeMCBoot installer. Unfortunately, that’s why you need a pre-modded console.
FreeMCBoot Installer
Firstly, download the files above and place them on a FAT/FAT32 formatted memory stick. Extract the entire zip archive onto the memory stick, as all the files in the zip archive are required for the console to be able to open it. Safely eject the memory stick from your machine to ensure the files are correctly written to the memory stick, and then transfer it to the PS2.
Boot up the PS2 and open up uLaunchELF. Navigate to MASS:/ to access the memory stick we have plugged in. The memory stick should show up similar to above (files beginning with a dot is junk from my mac, which may not be there for you – which is fine). If so, launch up FMCBInstaller.elf. One punch man season 1 download.
The launcher will display the FreeMCBoot Installer, a multi-purpose tool which will allow you to prep a memory card for FreeMCBoot, as well as install FreeHDBoot to a hard drive and various other memory card related functions. For the purposes of preparing FreeMCBoot for another console, we will need Multi-install.
The FMCB installer will warn you about the multi-installation process. So long as you backed up your Memory Card, this should be okay. The warning is that the filesystem needs to be modified to allow all systems to be able to read the FreeMCBoot exploit, which is obviously not a designed function for the Memory Card. If something goes wrong during install, your Memory Card could become corrupted. FMCB Installer can revive the Memory Card, but your save data will be lost. If you back up your saves, you will be fine. If you do not back up, beware.
The system will then ask you what memory card you will like exploited. If only one is present in the Memory Card slots, it will automatically detect it. Select OK and the FMCB Installer will proceed to exploiting your Memory Card with FreeMCBoot.
Once the installation is complete, you can safely exit out of the installer. Once the console drops back to the browse menu, turn it off and plug your newly exploited memory card into your non-exploited console.
FreeMCBoot
When you boot your PS2 up with the FreeMCBoot memory card inserted, you will find the boot sequence will not execute. Also, instead of just ‘Browser’ and ‘System Configuration’, you should now have a lot more options available. If so, congratulations you have successfully softmodded your console!
If you have opted for a multi-install as instructed in this guide, then the memory card can be used to execute the FreeMCBoot on any console that is not the latest release of the slimline console (SCPH-9000x). This means that combined with the memory stick (unless you copy your FMCB Installer files to your memory card via uLaunchELF), you can potentially install this on your friends’ consoles, and then everyone can benefit from the world of softmodding.

FreeMCBoot without Pre-modded Console
For those new to the scene, it’s a pretty tall ask to already have a modded console. If you are unable to go through the FreeHDBoot method which can be done without one, then your next course of action is to purchase a FreeMCBoot memory card.
Unfortunately we do not provide such service (yet), however the PS2 Reddit community has a contact that will do this for you with no labour charge. Simply pay the fee for the memory card unit, and they will send you one with multi FreeMCBoot pre-installed. Like mentioned in this guide, this will work for all PS2 consoles excluding the last production range (SCPH-9 range). Details can be found in the sidebar on Reddit (mobile users, click community information).
