Checks

I have checked existing OPL issues for duplicates and found none
I am using either OPL latest stable version, or archived version or OPL beta version

Describe the issue

I have OPL 1.2 2723 on the MC via Opentuna FMCB 1.953 package. Im using a 16GB usb drive formatted to exfat and have two DVD games : "Midnight club 3 dub edition remix (8GB)" & "Grand Theft Auto San Andreas (4.2GB)" (As '.iso' files)

However whenever i try to load these games, it just turns out to be a black screen (absolutely nothing).

I dont know if this is useful, but my PS2 has a "Sumo Lite" modchip.

Hi, I had these issues albeit different games (Phantasy Star Universe and its DLC/sequel). Changing to OP 9.3 fixed the issue with Modes 1,7, & 8.
However, I just changed out my chinese HDD loader with the official ps2 network/HDD loader with an IDE to SATA mod and it fixed my black screens on my troublesome games on the latest version of OPL. Maybe try that?

Im using a slim ps2, not only that but im using exFAT USB (only works on OPL 1.2 BETA) since i want to have all my (larger than 4 gb) games as single independent isos. Thank you for your time, but i think my problem (and some others) is completely different
