What is a ModChip? The ModChipStore.com MOD CHIPS are electronic chips that are added to the your game console - modifying it to boot up all CDs or DVDs depending on the console. It allows you to play Import games, CD-R backups and DVD-R backups. During the Boot sequence your console checks the Boot Information on the CD or DVD. This information is missing on Backups. Import Games show a foreign one. The Mod Chip injects the correct boot information. The chipkits include Full Color Online Wiring Diagrams, Installation Guide, Wires and Solder! The intended purpose of this chip is to allow you to use your game console to play imports and backups of software that you legally own, as is allowed by law. We accept no responsibility for the use of this device to play copies of games you do not own. Using the modchip to modify your console will void your warranty. |
