Modbo 4 0 Installation Guide

Posted on  by 



I know its been awhile since my last post but I've been busy completing my and preparing for graduate school. However in my usual weekend activity of perusing retro game stores I came upon a deal that I couldn't say no to. I managed to find a slimline model 79001 ps2 in the as is/broken pile at a retro game store for the paltry sum of $8. This is where piles of seemingly broken game consoles and accesories go when they are deemed unfixeable. But so far everything I have found and bought from this section has been repairable.
ModboSo I got home and plugged everything in and hit power expecting nothing but I was wrong. The ps2 was fully functional with some caveats. The disc spindle sometimes doesn't grab the disc correctly and the multi video out jack sometimes needs a wiggle to get rid of interference. I will address both problems in the future. I gave her a good clean since she was full of dog hair and a dead fly. I joked to a friend that I literally debugged a game console.

Modbo 4.0 The Modbo 4.0 is a more basic chip in terms of functionality, and should support all PS2 systems from V1 through V18. Modbo 5.0 The Modbo 5.0 is a more advanced chip in terms of functionality, and should support all PS2 systems from V1 through V18. Added functionality includes support for booting from USB devices (DEV3 boot mode). INSTALLATION DIAGRAMS: (RAR download) v.

Attaining a second slim ps2 (my first was a silver model 90000) has prompted me to dig out a modbo 4.0 modchip I purchased around two years ago for $4 off dealextreme but didn't have the courage to install on my only system. But now I have a cheap practice system so I had little to lose. First I downloaded installation diagrams for my model with the help of google images.

I only needed to solder 21 pins. The four in the box labeled F were by far the most difficult since the pitch of the pins was so tight. But I took my time and surprisingly everything worked first go which is rare for me.


I used 30 awg wire wrap wire from radioshack and tried to be neat with laying it out. For the power wires I used thicker stranded wire. I used scotch tape to secure the trickier wires double sided foam tape for the modchip pcb. Even with my temperature controlled iron with a fine tip some of the joints proved difficult but patience prevailed in the end.


And here it is booting some backups I made. Before I had to use swap magic discs to boot my copies but now they play like my pressed originals. It works with both ps1 and ps2 games plus I can boot ulaunchelf from a memory card. And now before anyone starts arguing about the legality issues I create my backups from the original discs that I purchased and only use them so I can leave my originals safe at home when I go off to college. I would cry if anything happened to my original discs. Finally I've ordered a translucent grey replacement case for the system and will post pictures and a video when I have gotten and installed it.

Modbo 4.0 Install Diagram

  1. Good Chip and Works Perfect

    Posted by Luois on 25th Apr 2015

    A lot of the chips for the PS2 systems just plain SUCK! I've gone through 3 different stores, each one sending me a chip that didn't work in my PS2 system (Slim model)... The ModBo 4.0 if the first chip that actually ended up working in my PS2 - because it really IS a universal chip - and not a chip designed for a single model of the ps2 system. If you're not sure which modchip you need, then get this one - it'll jus work!

  2. One of the last places to find this modchip!

    Posted by Bruce M on 8th Aug 2013

    I thought i would be out of luck 'cause no matter where I looked, I could not find the modbo mod chips any more. I know they're not a current item, but I was so happy to find it here so that I could buy it for my PS2. Received the chip (with free wires - thanks!!!!) and had it installed in 30 minutes and everything is working as advertised!
