FMCB still not working

[Bennieboi20]

ok then guys ive recently had FMCB installed on yet another memory card and this time i sealed it in bubble wrap to minimise damge... and again its not working on my console its a 30003 R console and memorycards and games work fine on it, was it being installed wrong or is it something im not doing correctly i should mention that its not being detected by my machineis there something i need to do?

What do you mean you had it sealed in bubble wrap? No amount of movement, even extreme shaking, is going to damage a solid state memory device. The only real damage could come from water, crushing and possibly magnets.

You can try to clean the pins off with a little bit of isopropyl alcohol on a Q-tip. Sometimes the pins become so dirty, that instead of a connection, there is nothing but filth making contact.

If you are ordering these cards, you could be getting the wrong region. Memory cards are not region specific, but FMCB is.

dont worry it seems to have started working again now O_o hahaha i took it out and plugged it back in and its working ok now so now that i have my memory card working what do i do next?

[Jazzmarazz]

FMCB will only load if the card is IN the console WHILE you turn it on. So, go ahead and reboot the machine and will see the FMCB splash-logo.
THen all of the apps that are installed will show up as a list. ESR games normally boot themselves, so just stick one in and wait.

What size is the MC? I've had no end of trouble trying to get FMCB booting with a 32mb but, it works fine with 8mb.

[Bennieboi20]

ok i rebooted and its come up with the FMCB list so all i do now is just burn a game and play it?

and its your standard 8 MB sony memory card why?

[Jazzmarazz]

NO, do not "just burn a game."
Every game image must first be patched with ESR-Patcher. Then you can burn them.

You'll need to convert CD games before you can ESR patch them.

lol oops ok then, thanks for this Jazz

[Jazzmarazz]

Here is an attachment of the ESR-Patcher that I use.
Also, what Shard says is true. You can only play games on DVD. If it is originally a CD, it must be convert, but most games already have a link for the DVD converted version.

ok then well i have no DVD's as of yet gonna buy a 100-pack of vertabrims off amazon incudes pens and cases for 20 quid is it worth it?

[Jazzmarazz]

No clue what a quid is worth, but I would pay $20 for that.

No, $20 - $25 is a fair price for 100 DVDs.

lol its slang down here for pounds like americans would say bucks

No, $20 - $25 is a fair price for 100 DVDs.

lol well that converts to about £15 here but you have to remember it includes the pens plus 100 cases for them and its not exactly £20 its £18.87

That's a decent price then. I haven't checked the conversion rate for pounds in months, so I wasn't sure.
