okay, this question has been ask a lot, and i have done my research before posting this message. i dont know why this isnt working. i have a Gateway 32mb flash drive, and a Lexar 64 mb sport Jump drive. i was told that they both should work. am i wrong? i have formated both of them in FAT format, and tried for the Gateway in FAT16. and still same result, nothing working. when i plug in the usb key, should the key light turn on? because for some reason mine doesnt. i have tested with my pda charger via usb to see if the usb is not responding, and it seems to work fine, as well fine with my time crisis gun.

i have copied the following files to the usb flash drive

BADATA-SYSTEM.cbs
PS2MENU.ELF

am i supose to be able to see the usb drive in my ps2 browser? like how am i supose to access it? when i place it in, it just doesnt detect anything. i have tried already numerous time, turning it on, before placing the key, after, and during, still same result. if you guys would be so kind to tell me what i am doing wrong that would be great.

I was told that the lexar 128 works. and i have the 64, but i was also told that the gateway 32 works, and i too own that. so i'm a bit confused. before i go off spending more money i would like to know your input on my situation.

Thank you.

this question has been ask a lot
which one?
i was told that they both should work. am i wrong?
who told you what? they probably do work.
should the key light turn on?
perhaps, if they work
am i supose to be able to see the usb drive in my ps2 browser?
no
like how am i supose to access it?
with ps2sdk? try the example bundled with the usb_mass storage driver.
if you guys would be so kind to tell me what i am doing wrong that would be great
It appears as though you are trying to install the exploit with a usb
thumb drive. BADATA-SYSTEM.cbs is intended to be used with
Codebreaker. If you do not own Codebreaker then this file is useless
to you.

Dude, you really take the cake.

Either you're exceptionally thick or an elaborate troll.

I'm impressed regardless.
