AWESOME, mine has no writing so it will be compatible

this Modchip is the best thing alive but its too much money!!! $50 would be more reasonable…hopefully they will get cheap on ebay soon

actually since there is no writing on there it means yours is not compatible cz there only showing u version TA-082

PS: whats the point most people dont have soldering skillz, I already burnt my ps2 from a stupid Mod-Chip

lol we typedat the same time

If it has no writing then it is compatible with the Modchip.

Yes,mine’s without any text! Looking forward to mod!

what the fuck, i got my psp from the release here in Europe, and it’s fucking not compatible with this type of modchip FUCK!!!

Well, i hope that it wil be a matter of time to create one that’s compatible with the TA-082

julian your an idiot… read what it says before you make wrong statesment.. and most people arnt stupid like you and burn they’re shit….

good point :)

damn, why did sony change the boards anyway? its almost like they knew already

mine is good to go from uk releas date :)

Mine as writing, but not in the place they said. And i’ve already been inside it and i have a TA-081 board :P

come on!!!! i can run the modchip in my psp :D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D

Also @ PSPMaster456. You can’t sell modchips on Ebay, and what’s wrong with the price you skinflint. Just think of the work that’s gone in to it! And @ julian it said if there is no writting there it IS compatible. TA-082 is the one NOT compatible. Read it properly or don’t bother trying to put a downer on it for everone else. Just cos you fried a PS2 doesn’t mean everyone else is a noob :P

ok, so if there is no writing, does that mean its compatible or not?

GOD DAMN U COCK SUCKER WHO CANT READ ENGLISH N STILL ASKING “COMPATIBILE/NOT”

what does a modchip do?

wat does solder mean and how do u do it
wat r the risks?

Ok…So i have writing on mine..so i’m good to go….so where can i order a mod chip? where do i solder the chip into …My PC or does it fit into one of those slots in my computer?

If you don’t know what a modchip is or what soldering is, forget it!

Soldering is basically setting the wires in place onto a circuit board by melting solder to solidify wires to the board. Personally, I wouldn’t take the risk to do this to my precious PSP myself…

Mine dont have the writings.. so… ITS COMPATIBLE!!!!
YEAHHHH!!!!

DO NOT ASSUME YOU CAN DO THIS IF YOU HAVE NO IDEA WHAT SOLDERING IS!

if ti has anothr writing it is compatible

@ father. Yes as i’ve already said the writting on mine is over to the right inside the UMD drive. But i also know for a fact i have a version TA-081 motherboard. So you should be ok ;)

sorry. Correction, over to the left i ment :S lol

YES! MINE HAS WRITING! MINE IS COMPATIBLE! HAHAHA TO ALL U PPL WHO CANT USE IT! SO HOW DO I INSTALL IT? THROUGH PSP/GAMES/MODCHIP? OR THROUGH THE FLASH STICK ROOT BOOTING WAY?

Sir Hacks Alot if yours has righting on the left side that means you can’t use it jack@$$

correction writing

God damnit people who can’t read, if there’s writing that means it’s NOT compatible.

hahaha im so lucky mine has the writing on it!!!! yes
i just ordered mine about two minutes ago!!!!!! hahaha!!!!!

Basically. If you have writing, unlucky. I only bought mine a lil while ago, came with 2.6 on it and mine has no writing. So looks like my psp is going same was as my ps2!! Mod chip all the way.

haha! both of mine a compatible!!!! neither one has writing on them. I have a 1.5 and a 2.5 so i’m gunna get a modchip for my 2.5! my dad will do the soldering for me… hes really good at that.

Yes! I can see IC1003…I’m soo lucky…i’m placing a order for two soo it will be twice as fast!!!

wow some people just don’t get it :(

by “it” i mean whats involved

I hope there are some instructions on how to take the PSP apart without mucking it up. Can’t wait to dive in ;-)

alright i know im a noob and all but what is a mod chip exactly like how do you use it annd whats it do… and how do you install it?

mines combatible it says, but i gotta 1.5 so i really dont need this unless i screw something up

YESSS IM SOO LUCKY I BOUGHT THE ONLY TWO AT THE STORE THAT SAID IC1003 HAHAHA IM GONNA HAVE MOD CHIP AND UR NOTT I FEEL BAD FOR THE PEOPLE WHO CANT USE MOD CHIPS IMA BE SOLDIERING IT MYSELF

thats soo cool i got 1 with the letters ic1003 im going to open it right now change the wires around is that exactly how u do Mod chip ?

what do i get out of this do i get like free games and movies for ever

Thank’s for fuckin’ telling me before I wasted 90 fuc kin’ dollars bitches!!

Wait a second…. I just re-read it. Does this mean that if I DON’T see anything then it WILL be compatible?

Dammit people read the whole article. If you DON’T have the writing then your PSP WILL work with the modchip. If you DO have the writing then YOU ARE OUT OF LUCK because it WON’T work.

If the Comments List Of this Website is any indication of human intelligence, its a wonder we have survived as a species for this long….
*sigh*

ok i think it’s just the same guy typing that shit over and over..

wtf !?

Diagrams for install on the TA-081 board are avialable on http://www.modchipstore.com ;)

“Dammit people read the whole article. If you DON’T have the writing then your PSP WILL work with the modchip. If you DO have the writing then YOU ARE OUT OF LUCK because it WON’T work.”

Yeahhh!! I have writing…Thanks for clearing that up for me, I’m sooo happy..I love mod chips and solder!!!

Well, this sounds fine and dandy. My PSP doesn’t have the writing, so it means I can use it. Me, and my Dad both have moderate soldering ability, so I would be able to install it..

But here’s a problem.. the program to program the chip is PC/Windows only. Unless I missed something, there is no Mac version?

(I’m using Mac OS X 10.4, for the record)

Im All In!

Good thing my dad works on tv’s because I don’t know shit about soldering.

To dumbhead and all the other jack@ss’s:

If you see “IC1003″ on the right side then you CAN’T use the modchip. Wow. Just when you think people can’t get any stupider, some other dummy sneaks up behind you and kicks you square in the ass.

Ok..I opened my Xbox, Where do i look for IC1003?

Daniel u aint funny

i know a good tv vcr repair man maybe i could get him to do it. and i guess there will be chips on e-bay for the dumas’s who can’t read correctly.
yes daniel that was funny :() ha-ha dumb@r$ez

this iz so killer, but I thought you could load with GTA LCS ?? I havn’t tried yet

oops im a dumbarse it took my smiley and made a whut face :)

Sony will scratch thier head again…

HAHAHA

Theres gonna be so many jackasses with fried PSPs coz they’re total noobs and dont know shit…

Read this forum from top to bottom, its hilarious!

I dont have writing but i honestly dont see why you would risk putting one in, for what??

by ‘one’ i mean a modchip, and by ‘what?’, i mean playing hacked games and stuff when it looks like DevHook will get there in the end

Im leteral about this peice of kit, I know this Comment i am posting may be newer then the one I posted on the Newer post Up top! But this is what i was thinking at the time when i saw this :

” How to make parents think that I need this :D, At the moment im literally Happy about this, But going Loopy over the fact that i am Desperate for one, And the fact that they Might or Will sell out soon ”

Hooooooooray!

Just asking this, Mine has writing there, But its not IC1003 it says something else, it looks like a bar code! ?

well srry i didnt read the brackets when i was checking out the picture

HaHa just orderd my UP cant wait till it arives. Cant see the install being any harder than modding an xbox. unlucky all you IC1003’s out there.

Anyone know of any uk places that will do the soldiering?

They need to reduce their prices else copy chip makers will just get a hold of their chip and make one and sell it for less.

Good for us bad for them.

Lawl, I just ordered a v1.52 PSP, and then I saw this. Pwnage.

WICKED!!! But how do you fit the ps2 game in the psp? does it come with a template to cut down the disc or sumthing?

Wtf? This is no friggin PS2 emu, dude.
This chip makes u able to play copied PSP games - regardless of ur fw version. o0

hi i got writing on the left side it’s IC6001, is that a kick in the nuts or not!!! pls let me know. don’t kick me in the nuts jus let me know. cheerz edfuk

Ok wats the deal here. According to this article, you either have IC1003 or u have no writing. Well, i have writing, but in my case its IC6001. So does the chip work or not. Now dont give me sum smart ass response because it is a legitimate question that isnt adressed in the above article.

my question is legit too, im wondering if the chip will work on the IC6001 model. is the writing on the left hand side as well?

I also have IC6001 to the left of my UMD drive. But i also know for a fact that my motherboard inside is a TA-081 as i have been inside it to double check. So you guy’s should be fine ;)

It says if you have IC1003 on right hand then u got TA-082 and not compatible any other writting anywhere else means nothing so for you IC6001 you will hae either TA-79 or TA-81 hope this helps

WHAHAHA some people will never learn!! Than to think of it that people buy PSP’s to mod them, but instead of buying TA-79 or TA-81 systems they go and ask for the NOT compatible TA-82 systems!!!
What a lauch!!! whaha! But mine is compatible, i havo no writing, but i’m just nog gonna risk blowing my PSP. Much too expensive for that… :D

Ok thismay be a stupid question but do ppl make unsigned firmware, do you, or is it included, etc.

Also basically what this does is allow you to run the new shit AND the old shit rite?

uh my board says IC 6001 what kind of board is it??

WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH ALL YOU NOOBS!!!!! JUST GET OFF THIS SITE IT’S NOT FOR YOU! NO WRITING MEANS NO MODCHIP!!!!

if you are a noob go to the webpage http://chosenofmystra.net/gabby/noob.jpg

correction writing means no modchip :D

i’ve got 1.5 firmware with DevHook, so i saved myself about $90-$100 because I don’t have to buy a ModChip…

im in the uk so how would i get the chip over here?? im in need fir it lol
