must be something with your
ps2
try this
when the armax loads and you have entered your cheats
eject your
PS2 (slim remove sensor block at front)
insert a real
ps2 game - (even though you have a chip, it is not active at this time)
(slim, replace sensor block) swap trick for backup, load backup.
you need a better mod chip that stays active during gameplay
the reason why the disc stops spinning is because the
ps2 know its a copy, you modchip is not active at that time
maybe your mod chip firmware options can change this setting
