FreePSXBoot is yet another awesome softmod for the original PlayStation console which allows you to safely and easily boot up import and backup games like never before. No need to open up a console, pick up a soldering iron, swap discs with precise timing, block sensors, or look for a Parallel I/O cartridge to use UniROM with! Unlike the previous tonyhax softmod we looked at, FreePSXBoot relies only on a modified memory card and can be booted right from the BIOS Main Menu. Don't think we're leaving tonyhax behind, you can boot tonyhax using FreePSXBoot, no longer requiring a specific game to boot a modified save!
This involves restoring a custom made image for a PS1 memory card to a memory card of your own choosing. Although several methods exist for flashing an image to a PS1 memory card, the most accessible method people might have would be using a modified PS2. This tutorial will step through the process of using a PS2 to copy a memory card image from a USB drive to a PS1 memory card. This will also show how to use both variations of FreePSXBoot with UniROM and tonyhax. Finally, this will cover a method of uninstalling FreePSXBoot which should be accessible for many people out there!
It is important to note this does not work on EVERY console. The following consoles are confirmed to be compatible:
- Every European (PAL) PS1 Console
- Every North American (NTSC-U) Console
The following consoles are NOT compatible:
- Every Japanese (NTSC-J) PS1 Console
- Every PS2 Console

The latest update now allows the memory card to be and stay in slot 2!!! This means, you don't have to keep removing the memory card every time you want to play the game and can keep a game save memory card in slot 1! I love how finally the PS1 is getting some soft mod love

This is great advancement for the scene but rather than using up a whole MC that would be best used for all the backups you're gonna run. I personally found it most efficient to just install a mod chip myself. They're fairly cheap and they're great for practicing soldering for beginners. I did my first one the other day and I couldn't have been happier with the results. I think the use is still most valuable and anyone without a modded ps2 can do it without any extra hoops to jump through.

I've been very interested in getting myself a ps1 again since I used to own one as a child, specifically the PSOne [with the lcd screen] but I've been debating on how I want to mod it. I'm far too terrified in opening a console and soldering stuff and as far as I'm aware the SD card adaptor mod for ps1 doesn't work for the slims. Hoping there's another way to load games via roms that doesn't involve major hard mods and especially for the ps1 slim

If it was 4.4 I'd have blocked the sensor and used the disk method for formatting (I have the psx hacker kit 18 in 1 that also has a MC manager). Having a tonyhax compatible game is indeed useful also for checking the exact bios (without need of blocking sensors and launch the bios dumper disc) for then install fpsxb.

My original PS2 console, I don't feel like playing my games from the beginning and want to play complete save game files. PS2 Save Builder doesn't seem to like PS1 save game files.

@MrMario2011 have you noticed that the audio tracks from games don't sync properly when playing backups? Game runs and plays just fine, but the audio tracks cut out or stop altogether. Noticed it in Capcom VS SNK Pro, but was really affected when I tried the rhythm game Bust-A-Groove. I'm thinking it's an issue with the either A. the rom file itself (bin & cue) or B. the disc writing speed is too fast and then the PlayStation doesn't read it correctly. Any thoughts?

there is a video of someone adjusting the potentiometer (pot) of the ps1, (there exist videos too for the ps2). The laser when reading audio tracks, has a voltage spike somehow for some reason the laser's voltage fluctuate upward as soon as it begins to read the audio track. I believe the ps1's laser's potentiometer has to be adjusted to read backup games. I don't know by how much, i know its slightly because if you adjust it too much you could burn your laser, also, it could affect how the ps1 reads regular games..

Hey MrMario, great video as always! Just ordered two original PS1 memory cards so I'll be able to do this :) I have two questions though. If I wanted to play backup disks, how would I go about and burn them from my PC? Are there any certain CDs I would need to use, any certain settings and what program would you recommend? And for my second question, are there any advantages over using Tonyhax compared to FreePSXBoot / UniROM and vice-versa? To me they seem like they're the exact same, so I'm not sure why two different exploits exist for the PS1 when the setup and use is virtually the same.

This mod works great but I wasn't fully aware of the few PS1 games that are able to detect the modified hardware in use. For me it was JP release of Strider 1+2 and while I can play it fine on my modified PS2, unfortunately even with my Retrotink my TV does not play well with the resolution switching between cutscenes and levels, still playable but annoying. The PS1 was connected to my CRT which would have been ideal but I always get the software terminated screen for both games. Glad that many of my other Japanese imports work flawlessly but still annoying that Strider was the outlier in this situation.

It just seems like freepsxboot is the better choice but if they dont clash and can run together i dont see the downside of that either. Edit: if i install both are they on the same memory card? would that be an issue?

Does it have to be an official Playstation memory card? I've done this with a third party MC and every time I press on the Memory Card menu instead of bringing mento the FreePSXLoder menu it just brings me to the MC manager screen.

Stupid question: Does this flash your PS1 permanently? Or modify it somehow? I have large US PS1 collection and this obviously not necessary for those, so I wouldn’t want to have the card plugged in for those.

Quick question, I have tried both FreePSXBoot and TonyHax and I get stuck at the same place with both. When inserting the backup, the disk doesn't spin up. I am just locked at the screen asking me to insert disc. I know the back-up works because I have used it in the boot-swap method with a real psx game. Any ideas what is creating the issue? The only thing I can think of is that I taped down my lid button inside the console for the boot-swap, maybe the hacks need to see your console open and close the disc tray to work?

Well, that was it. Just to note, it you have anything holding down you disc tray button, these hacks will not work.

@@YNGDYE Yes. I was originally using those new white 1mb third party cards you can get at pretty much any game shop, or Amazon, and it wasn't working. I ended up trying it on a cheap old third party 2x multicard and it worked fine first try. It seems to be an issue with the cards themselves so try and find an old used one if you can.

Great vid as all yours are! Thx, but I tried both and can't get either one to copy to PS1 memory card. There are new versions out where you select which port to copy to and tried both to no avail! I am using 2 new 1mb generic PS1 memory cards. They save games with no problems and PS2 goes through the process of copying to the memory card(s). Using PS2 fat and model PS1 7001 U/C. I wonder if it is because I am using generic memory cards, any ideas...anyone? BTW, when I plug in memory card(s) in PS1, they just show up as if they are blank and can still save games on them. That is what it was, generic memory card. You MUST use original PSX memory card...for me anyway. It works, thx for the video Mario!

You may find your generic card is fake and is only 512k instead of 1mb. There are lot around. That’s why image won’t install. I had the same problem.
