There is a lot you can do to a PlayStation 1 other than just install a modchip. Modchips that aren't in the list above are covered in less detail in a guide covering other older modchips. Here's a list of modchip specific guides, which include links to installation diagrams for each board, and source code to make your own chips. If you have any suggestions, corrections, or additional information, please leave a comment and I'll be happy to update this guide. My goal is to have a single guide that covers as much information as possible, making it easier for everyone to get solid information about PlayStation 1 modchips. Many of the sources for PlayStation 1 modding information have gone offline, or are spread out across many forum threads.
This guide has been put together from a combination of my experience, and what I have found online. It includes some frequently asked questions about PlayStation 1 modchips in general, and then links off to more information about each type of chip, and those pages link off to installation guides for each console model.
This page is the starting point of the guide. It's organized like this primarily so that comments can be more organized and useful for readers. This guide is structured into several pages. Continue reading and I'll answer those questions and more.Īs of right now this guide is still a work in progress.
