Boot instructions:
Load orig. ps2 demo cd (PBPX-95205) (holding reset, ea-boot "neo2.2") Select FIFA2001,
When u see controller in your screen (letgo reset) swap cd'z. Hit the X putton right away when tray comes in. When it ask Hardware dongle press START or insert the dongle. If u don't have dongle, insert memory card and go to AR2V2EURO -> OPTIONS -> RESET HARDWARE -> X (Now u are able to use cheat codes)
Little info about this backup and how it's been done... v1.2
With this info u are able to backup your AR2V2EURO cd and make it bootable with original PS2 demo cd.
If look at the original ps2 demo cd (PBPX-95205) in the \FIFADEMO folder u are gonna see GAMEZ.ELF file.
This is the file what loads other files from the cd (when u choose to play fifa2001 demo).
U take all the files from AR2V2EURO, cd includes (specially when u copy BIG.DAT) some error's but ignore them. Copy files somewhere in your hd, c:\Boot\
Then copy \SCEE_DD folder from ps2 demo cd (PBPX-95205) to c:\boot\
Make \FIFADEMO folder to c:\boot\ (c:\boot\FIFADEMO\)
Copy c:\boot\SLES_500.09 to c:\boot\FIFADEMO\ and rename it to GAMEZ.ELF
Now u should have in your c:\boot folder following files & folders.
C:\boot\FIFADEMO\GAMEZ.ELF
C:\boot\GFX\ (including 11 files)
C:\boot\GFX\FONT\ (including 6 files)
C:\boot\SCEE_DD\ (including 14 files)
C:\boot\ (including 10 files) Now u need to do PS2 compliant cd:
Open CD_DVD-ROM GENERATOR v1.XX -> NEW PROJECT -> CD-ROM master disc
Volume -> Disc Name = PBPX-95205
License Area = Europe
Volume = SLES_500_09
Volume Set = SLES_500_09 Import or drag&drop all the folders and files to your project root.
Export iml file and use iml2iso.exe tool to make it burnable with CDRWIN
CDRWIN burn settings
- File backup and tools -> Record an ISO9660 image file
- Select your *.iso
- Disc type = CDROM-XA
- Track mode = MODE2
- Finalize/Close session -> Select
- Write postgap -> Select
And burn it !!!!
Place and load the original ps2 demo cd in your ps2, Select fifa2001 and when u see controller screen swap it to your just burned backup. (I suggest to use ea boot method with neo2.2, but swap it anyway u want)
AR2V2EURO will now load!
If u load it without dongle just press START with your controller and it will load the START GAME screen.
Without dongle u ain't able to use multiregion bypass!!!
With older(AR1V9EURO) or new(AR2V2EURO) dongle everything worked fine !!!
