Double Swap Method

[BMWdude]

I found this on the net:

METHOD FIVE: The Double Swap Method [Fairly safe but pretty tricky]

Works on : All PlayStations to date, including the latest models.

Success : 100%

Problems : Do not kid yourself, this method IS difficult. The end result is well worth it (especially if you have no other options.)

Note:

1x and 2x refer to the CD motor speed (single speed and double speed), watch a few of your games boot up with the lid open and you can easily see and hear the "gear changes". To get full music timing is highly critical otherwise the original TOC is used.

o Insert your local CD.

o Remove the local CD when the motor changes to 2x and replace it with your foreign CD.

[If you did this right, you *SHOULD* see the black PS screen now.]

o Watch and listen to the CD motor. It will slow down and then speed back up to 2x.

o After a few seconds, the CD motor will slow down again. Replace with your local CD once again.

o After another half second or so, the local CD will speed up again. Finally replace your foreign CD.


I would just like to clear things up. When swapping between CD's, do I HAVE TO hold down the motor so it doesn't spin, or do I just let it spin?

Why would yo do that? I suppose it's not for downloaded gamez, because, as you will probably know already, it's agaisn't the rules. If so, i suggest deleting this thread ASAP, as you won't get help here :P .
