WHAT IS A STEALTH MOD CHIP ? 

                  Now with Anti-Mod Technology !

The Stealth Modchip will allow games that have Sony's Anti-Mod protection to play inside of a Stealth modified playstation. This new Anti-Mod technology will defeat the so called "anti-mod chip" games that have been emerging recently. Games like Grind Session, Spyro 3, NFL Gameday 2001, RE: Survivor, NHL Face Off, Medevil 2, Wild Arms 2, Dino Crisis 2, Cool Boarders 2001, Bio Hazard III and others incorporate this new protection.

The Stealth chip supports PSX models 550x/700x/750x/900x and PSone 10x NTSC or PAL!  The Stealth Modchip will do everything as a normal Classic Modchip, but shuts down after supplying the Source code needed to complete boot-up!

All PSX games will play with a Stealth Modchip, including older games!

DOES NOT WORK IN SCPH-100x MODELS

How does a Stealth Mod Chip Work?

A Stealth Modchip detects when it should shutdown!. It turns itself completely off and is only reactivated again by the reset or door sensors! This makes it impossible for anything to detect that a mod chip is inside of your playstation console! The New Stealth Modchip works as an undetectable modchip and will do everything a classic modchip does, plus has the self detect and shutdown feature!

How Does It Work?

Before you try and copy a Playstation CD, you must be aware that you can't just
copy-and-play. It is critical that you understand the copy protection used inside the PSX, and what you must do to play copied CDs. Authentic CDs for the PSX have black bottoms, as compared to normal CDs with silver or gold bottoms. This is to distinguish authorized CDs from those made with a standard CD recorder. Despite the coloring, PSX CDs can be read in any PC or Mac CD-ROM.

The black CDs are made with special recorders made by Sony, which are able to write special CDs (through the use of bad blocks). Bad blocks are segments of data on the CD which have been marked as invalid. Normally, you do not want these on a CD as any data which is located in a bad block is lost. Because of this, all consumer CD recorders are designed to correct bad blocks when they read them before writing them to new CDs. Only Sony's special development recorders will re-write these bad blocks on new CDs, and these cannot be purchased. Understanding bad blocks is the key to understanding the Playstation's copy protection scheme.

When the PSX boots up, it performs two checks on the CD inside the PSX. One of these checks looks for the country code, which tells the PSX what country the CD was created in. If the code matches the code that is located in the PSX BIOS (Basic Input/Output System), the boot procedure will continue. For example, a Japanese CD is not playable on a US Playstation because of the country code check. The second check looks for bad blocks at certain locations on the CD. Since only Sony's CD recorders can produce these, the presence of bad blocks tell the PSX that the CD is authentic. If they are not there, the PSX halts the boot process.

There have been several methods to get around this check. The first is the famous swap trick method, which has many variants. Sony caught on, however, and modified the BIOS further so that swapping would not work. The easiest way (and only way for newer Playstations) is to purchase a replacement chip for the PSX, known as the MOD Chip. The MOD Chip replaces the chip inside the PSX that checks for the country code and bad blocks. It automatically tells the PSX that the country code passed and that the CD is authentic.

Can they damage a Playstation?

No! The only way you can damage a Playstation is through an improper installation!

Will my PSX Game Shark / Game Enhancer / Action Replay / Modshark work with
the Stealth Mod Chip?

                  

Yes! However you will need to follow the following procedure to boot your games.

   1. Open the lid, put the CD in the unit, leave the lid open.

   2. Turn on the playstation.

   3. Pick whatever cheat codes you want to use.

   4. Close the lid and press the button to start the game within 1-2 seconds of closing.

You must do this procedure because the units like the Game Enhancer / Game Shark take over the boot process and since the Stealth Chip must go into Stealth mode in order to beat the new protection you must tell the chip to wake up before you tell the game to boot.
