    My Ps2 slim scph 7006 are experienced slowed boot menu .
    Second no network detected in opl or SMS.
    I'm tried Windows and Nas but nothing to work.
    What are fixes for this?

    What do you mean by slow boot menu? Is it slow in general, or does it take a while to get to the clock.

    It would be normally impossible for the network adaptor to not be detected by OPL because it is integrated into the mainboard, so there is a hardware problem of some sort. What did you do to this console?

    If there is a mod chip installed, please check for unintended bridges.

    The only time I've encountered this is when I have my ps2's hard drive in it, so this is kind of strange.
    Also, I've never fiddled with freemcboot or ps2 modchips.

    Stupidly obvious, but... Did you reseat all the plugs? Both on the PS2 and the switch? Maybe one of them is just not making good contact.

    It might be cheaper and easier for you to just get a new console. Like I told you in a PM, it could be a cracked solder joint if you haven't done anything to it recently.

    If it is a failure of one or more chips, you probably wouldn't be able to easily replace them because nearly all the chips used are proprietary.

    thank you for response. My findings is ram replacement because takes time to boot that results not all drivers are fully loaded.
    My questions is where ram is located?

    I doubt that it is a RAM problem, if the console is otherwise sane (I.e. games run fine). If you want to replace the EDO RAM, you should look near the IOP. The EE uses RDRAM, which is near the EE and is BGA-mounted. For more information, you should refer to the service manual for this model.

    In my opinion, anything could cause such a stall - just any malfunctioning perhiperal that any part of the browser waits on, would do that. It could be the CD/DVD subsystem, given that you have a modchip installed.
    The missing network adaptor problem might be a fault around the SSBUS I/F controller (CXD9611) or SPEED (CXP9731GP).

    Yes that's it. I also observed that CD drive or laser not working well , no spin and light sightings. also the mod chip not working with the reset tricks by Super 7.
    Either wise all controller , video, working well.
    Same too the some Elf like Ps2 identification takes black screen and too time to loading .
