How do I get my PS1 and PS2 to read burned CDs? Is there a tutorial on how to do this? Reading through the tutorial on how to dump the PS1 BIOS I noticed that I first need a console that can read burned CDs.

thanks

If a PS1 must be able to play burned CDs in order to dump a BIOS, surely someone around here knows how to do it....do I have to join a secret society?

PS1 and PS2 only reads Original CD's and DVD's.

Then what is the deal with these instructions? Its says HERE that you need a console that is capable of playing burned CDs to dump the BIOS.

Is the PSX and Playstation different? What am I missing here

Modchips. We can't really discuss them though. For ps1, you need a modchip. For ps2, look up Free MCboot. That's all I can really say.

You need to burn a cd using a software like Nero. the burnt cd should contain the program (psx.exe) burnt on it.
Did you forget to read the guide after the first line?

I can see the first line just fine...where I'm confused is, after I burn the psx.exe to a CD-R disc, how to I get the Playstation to read it? With a Mod****, as suggested by DAX?

 

[redlofredlof]

um you need to insert the cd into the ps1/2, is it that difficult?

I'll take your word on that, but earlier you said that PS1 and PS2 only read original CDs and DVDs...

 

[redlofredlof]

that is true for game discs.

Ok, so I insert the psx.exe CD, follow the instructions, get my BIOS, and use it in the Emulator to play games......right?

But in order to play burned game CDs on the PS1 or PS2, I need the modchip, or Free MCboot, right?
