Something very wrong with my PS1
Вставка

- There's nothing wrong with the cable as I used it with the PS2 (the barely visible silver slab) beside the PS1 with no problems. I know the PS2 has backwards compatibility but some of my earliest memories are of playing on the PS1 and I would like to have some of that good ol' nostalgia, so any advice would be appreciated!
Don't know why this is gaining traction on and off but hey: if you wanna see a direct feed of more gameplay, it can be found here: ua-cam.com/video/tRi9j-KanY0/v-deo.html
At least you can still play
i think the graphical errors is a cable issue maybe it needs a power cable bc its underpowered or maybe the video outpu cable is bad maybe rey replacing them they are old cables anyway mostlikely
Also the bios could be corrupted
Oh-oh did somebody Modify there PSx wrong
Fake video, power light isn't even on and disc doesn't spin
I don’t know why, but it’s more creepy to me when older electronics with old hardware like Windows XP and old video game systems get errors I would get so scared as a kid when I would use my Windows XP computer as a kid back in the early 2000s/early 2010s and get errors
THANK GOD IM NOT THE ONLY ONE. Computer errors used to literally scare the shit out of me something so ominous and disturbing
so true. when i was a little kid and i wanted to use the computer, i would always get the "aw snap" error message and it scared the living daylight out of me. also, when i would go onto certain websites and it would ask if i had a webcam, i would just cry so much and run away from the computer lol. it was a very big fear of mine but i overcame it by drawing webcams and error messages, and now i'm somehow fascinated with the two
I was scared for blue screen of death and literally hid in other rooms or under the office table on which the monitor was. It was just until 17 years old I stopped. Feeling very proud of myself
@@merk69 PlayStation was king of that. Nintendo came runner up then there was what I like to call customer service, Xbox. Coz it isn’t creepy, just kinda annoying
...guessing you pissed yourself to the sound of the shutdown?
A lot of people saying it's a BIOS issue but the fact that it happens outside of the BIOS would actually lead me to believe there's some sort of hardware failure happening; probably in the graphics chip or in VRAM.
If the console is not mod chipped, you could see about taking it somewhere to be serviced; but not many places will fix PS1s nowadays
That is very true! I had to read this whole thing and I believe that!
@a dog I think it's the hardware, because as you can see, the memory card/cd player menu of the ps1 is glitched, also, not many games have those graphical issues, so my guess is that something might be wrong with the CPU/GPU of it.
what does the message say
yeah i know this is old but if game looks like that you might as well grab a new psx for cheap even one with a burnt out laser and just use the laser thats in your psx that you know works.
@Tom’s Tech no its crashed
I REMEMBER GETTING THAT AS A LITTLE KID AAAAHHH
this is SUPER EXTREME CREEPY it had me nightmares
OH MAH GAWD
Happened to me on sega genesis! I ran out like sid on toy story.
How did you fix it
OH MY $-'4 I CANT I54"ING BELIEVE IT
By experience, it looks like your PS1 is in its last days.
Starting from the boot menu, the squares are related with the alpha blending of the spheres (it's not a 3d sphere).
I guess your PS1's system is corrupt, if else it might be a motherboard problem.
My very first ps1 started doing that before it wouldnt read games at all. Found one at a garage sale recently tho so got one that works 💪🏻
Sounds like it could be a dying laser then? The console is probably struggling to read the graphics data.
0:00 POV: you feel the real happines
I find it kind of funny how this PS1 console is being plugged through what is essentially a product of the company Nintendo decided to work with after the breakup between Nintendo and Sony.
What about Plugging the N64 to a Sony CRT.
I remember owning a Dreamcast with a faulty laser and it would do things like this while trying to play with it
Hands down my favorite console, I have had Sega Genesis, CD, NES, SNES, PS1, N64, Dreamcast, PS2, Xbox, 360, PS3, PS4 and gave up after that. PC master race 😂
I love how this guy asked for help but everyone is just talking about nostalgia.
It seems to be a very specific part of memory in the console. Maybe a cache or ram chip went bad and is corrupting whatever it's being loaded in main memory, because most of it seems still playable. But hey, don't feel bad about playing these games in the PS2. The main PS1's CPU is the CPU for I/O in the PS2, so when the PS2 goes in PS1 mode, it uses THAT cpu! :D
It is in fact a ram chip problem. But most likely fixable as I had same issue. Exactly the same boot menu corruption. In my case it was caused by one of the pins from the chip loosing connection with the motherboard. Doing a simple solder reflow on some of the pins in the surrounding area of the ram chip fixed the problem. i would recommend the owner of this ps1 to open it up, and take a plastic tool, and press all the pins around the RAM chip to see if the corruption goes away. Could very well be a pin or two losing connection to motherboard.
@@srs2236 Yeah, it's weird, hardware wise, for the PS1 to fail like this. The only true issue these consoles had were bad CD drives.
@@RetroArcadeGuy maybe the motherboard is seated in such a way that its bent a little bit near the ram chip. Over many years of time that could cause a cold solder joint to crack at a specific area.
This is not the first instance of me seeing this exact corruption on a PlayStation 1. That makes me believe that this could be a small problem affecting some PS1 as they age.
Obviously i'm 100% guessing at this point, but we could see if it is closer to the truth if the original poster of this video could say the model of the PS1. The one that i remember failing in the exact way was an SCPH-7xxx model. If i'm not mistaken it was the SCPH-7502 one.
Also it could have happened from fall damage or some external force that has contributed to the cause of the error.
But to be honest we will never know unless the person who owns this PS1 decided to tinker with it a bit and open it up.
but if the PS2 uses the processor of the PS1 for I/O, how does it play PS1 games and use I/O?
@@matthewferraro8020 Do you know what SoCs are?
Should be fixable by resoldering the RAM pins. Had the same issue. One of the RAM pins is most likely not making good contact with the motherboard. Seen multiple videos of this and had a personal experience with this. Sure enough resoldering RAM pins fixed it.
dead gpu or video ram. (if it was the bios, the game would look fine)
I was thinking of some loading problems that might happen over time since PS1 is quite old, and damn, this just goes to another level lol
Looks like its beginning to die my friend, hopefully it might just need to have a few pins re-soldered
The ps1 and ps2 had the most diverse games ever but holy hell they were a glass cannon architecturally, the most fragile unreliable piece of hardware i had the pleasure of owning. And the darn disc problems 😬
laughs in first batch xbox 360
Everyone's experiences are so different. I bought my ps2 on release and it still works perfectly in 2022, only thing is that the internal clock died. Funny thing is I bought a refurbished original xbox and it died in 6 months.
Remember the turn it on upside down thing?
Lol really? I owned two PS2s, both second hand, and they ran beautifully for more than 10 years. One of them I still own and it works just how it did years ago. The disc problems, they did definitely exist. I remember as a kid being so irresponsible in how I treated them. They were always a big issue. Scratched up beyond recognition.
My guy , ps2's are indestructible, I have one for more than 13 years and it's still reliable. It has taken many falls too
Looks like the graphics chip is fucked, check for dust or something around the GPU pins. There COULD be something shorting a little but don't get your hopes up. Most likely will need another PS1
Your fucked
XDDDDD “Looks like the graphics chip is fucked” yeah man he did some stuff teh other night XD
also what do you mean by the graphics card got ahiited
Congrats, your BIOS is corrupted.
no
yes but the game is corrupted too so it's not the bios
Actually if your BIOS would be corrupted, you'd get the personified fear error and the game wouldn't run at all.
@@CyberDragonArt you don't know what you're talking about
These are probably two things: RAM issue or CPU issue, as we can see there's no gpu artifact in the image, then we can discard GPU issues.
Neither RAM nor CPU, it's definitely ROM got corrupted because there's no glitch while healthy disc inserted. You can easily transplant it from other PS1 as it's not a complex BGA chip
@@KangJangkrik Did you not finish watching the video? The game is also corrupted. This is a vram issue.
Definitely a vram issue
Hello there!
@@KangJangkrik it would hardly be this, look to the image, do you see any texture problem? issues about polygons render? my guess is that: the cpu is skipping something and it probably is BGA.
I still have a chipped PS1 and it still works fine, I am so glad!
What the actual fu
I HAD THE SAME PROBLEM MAN! THE VERY VERY SAME! To be exact, it went even deeper than this. That was the beginning. Later, the whole screen was blueish. I noticed that everytime a texture is used, it's coverd in stripes and / or blue color. Playing 2d games was near impossible.
To fix this, me and my brother used to bend the display connector at the console side.
Today, when i'm thinking of this, PROBABLY some zener diode was burned, or some capacitor went shit. It's just assumption. I'd measure each SMD diode, resistor, capacitors and diodes to find the burnt element.
Why such assumption? Because bending the cable would result in nice picture again - it was clearly analogue bug.
nope, textures are clearly corrupted, not an analogue prob at all
@@severebraindamage_med how much do you know about electronics?
@@CykPykMyk enuff to know that this problem is probably related to digital VRAM chips, not to loose connector
looks like artifact
@@severebraindamage_med I am between bios and VRAM, probably VRAM.
Could also be a hint on failing capacitors. Those things can leak after a long time
That’s what I’d guess. My money is on leaking or failing caps
@@89ry89 in the end, the only way to find out is to use a multimeter and test it out, if there is something bad on the motherboard
@@Kinsanth_ Capacitors don't cause things like this. You can't test capacitors with multimeters, either.
@@kyle8952 yes they do, as it is shown in many restorationvideos. When capacitors start to leak, they are unable to hold charges for critical electronical parts, which leads to malfunction or outright no working condition
No brony
Congratulations UR PS1 IS CORRUPTED!
The IC102 is not seated properly, so it needs to be reseated. Or here, possibly the GPU. (modded unit?) Just buy another and get it chipped.
Seeing that game intro gave me some nostalgia
I dont know what your talking about it looks perfectly fine to me
I came here expecting an ARG jumpscare
bro's got a anti-piracy screen then the game went bonjour
And maybe you will get personified fear
I loved playing the crash bandicoot games back in the day, I think they were the first games I completed
PlayStation 1 opening music was the best of all
“…and then Crash Bandicoot became hyper realistic and his eyes bled at me.”
ITS BECAUSE YOUR USING AN HDTV
it doesnt support the quality output and thats the end result
try a tube tv and it should fix it
How did you get your PS1 hooked up to a flat panel? It looks quite good besides the error. I thought these things only shine through old CRT screens.
The PS1 was a failure console it ruined so many arcade hits just like the NES did if it didn’t get arcade classics it wouldn’t of ruined the games
my brain had some sort of explosion watching this because i saw what happened at the same time realising we had the same tv and i thought it was my tv for a second and just went WHAT.
Im more focused that you have the exact same tv as the one in my bedroom!
actually, this is playstation (original) PS1 had more round design
The worst was when you would have the game in there and it would still go to the memory card/cd player screen and the disk can't be read. Stomach sinking-worthy
Bios corruption: Allow me to introduce myself
what
It's not the bios, it's either the graphics chip or the Vram
What model number is your PS1 and how long have you had and used this PS1? If this is one of the first models from way back in the day, its probably time to get a newer PS1. I personally own a US 7501 PS1 and a Japanese 9000 PS1. (9001 if you want the US version) The 9000s series of the PS1 is the last one that's grey like that and lacks the Parallel port. That's why my US PS1 is a 7501. The 7500 series is the last one with Parallel Ports, but the 9000 series is the most reliable. So if you don't care about the Parallel Port at all, get a 9001 PS1.
Very likely the PS1 either has a corrupted bios or the graphics chip is failing.
Pretty sure it’s a European (PAL) model PS1;
Dunno what specifically cause ya can’t judge a PS1’s make by the front alone.
Also if he were to get an SCPH-9001 PS1..
He would need a voltage converter seeing as it is an American unit and 50hz is how they run power in Europe.
Anyways, I doubt this is a problem with the BIOS. I personally can’t see that. It’s gotta be an issue with the graphics chip, may even have a dying GPU. Best bet is to just get another PS1 or use a PS2 for your PS1 gaming needs.
@@ShadowNinja452 True
Most PlayStation and game systems look the same even even region locked systems most of the time it’s the hardware inside. That usually is different. Like software wise and the model number most of the time
@@ShadowNinja452 the problem is probably is the VRAM as most of the time you see texture corruptions, and these are stored in VRAM, not 3d corruptions, so i'm fairly sure its not the graphics chip itself.
faulty BIOS (but, to be more correct, OSROM with PlayStation Operating System) looks somewhat different to this and i bet that faulty libraries inside OS will not allow game executable to even run properly.
@@severebraindamage_med
Honestly, I don’t think you’d be too far off there. In which case, it makes me wonder, can one just simply replace the faulty VRAM from the PS1 unit and put in a newer VRAM that is compatible with the PS1? I don’t know;
I’m probably not thinking hard enough.
Also… Faulty libraries… now that you mention it, that may explain why I have been having some issues with very few games I attempted to play on this modded PS1 I own (it’s weird; Has some switch on the front of the unit I have to flick upward to use the chip and play a game from, say, Japan).
Some of the games I found haven’t worked well on it were Test Drive 5,
Dragon Ball Z Ultimate Battle 22
(Greatest Hits variant) and
Bugs Bunny: Lost In Time; All NTSC-U releases.
Me watching this: theres nothing wrong even tho all I see is 10101010101
Cpu or ram issue
Yeah, let's recommand this 7 years later for 2 weeks to random people so they can see this video
Bad graphics or Video memory is or by now was shot seeing this is five years ago as of now. Did you ever pinpoint the issue?
Good old memories
Yeah, prob a ram issue because the anti piracy was triggered.
WHAT THE ?????????????????????????????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!-
Your PlayStation has the cyber “coronavirus”.
its the bios there i suggest you go to were ever you bought and fix and if you bought online idk what to tell ya
I remember the scare I had when I booted GameShark Lite for the first time and it had a Lighting Bolt instead of PS logo.
Ps1 styled horror games are fuking legendary in the sense that it is truly terryfing
who remembers the american standard toilets , that took long to flush , that is real nostalga
P/P
Sensational
GPU/ SGRAM issue.
Why is everyone trying to diagnose his Playstation? The thing is almost 30 years old and it's finally time to let those memories go, Simple as that. Everything breaks eventually, even people.
Read the bottom of the description
I remember old years🥺
i think the vram want a break, an eternal one
i don't understand what is wrong?
It’s could be the system bios, gpu chip, or disc drive. Maybe all 3
its the ram.
I'm satisfied with my Sony PS1, on my mobile phone Devices, & the Sony ps2 portable,, compare to the Sony PS4, & the Sony PS5,, are too much expensive to buy, seriously,, 😳🥺
I can see that.
Plot twist: the main menu was made in PowerPoint.
Just update it with Game Pass
either a chip has unsoldered, or there is a problem with the Disc reader, I don't think its a BIOS problem
if it was a bios problem there wouldn't be graphical errors in the game so it completely debunks that theory.
So a chip probably has a bad connection, or failing capacitors.
@@KennethPlaysOfficial That's... exactly what I said
looks like a vram problem
Nah, that’s a regular ps1 error. It’s great that it has a stroke instead of actually giving an error!
i have a ps1 and i can confirm this is happening to me all the time.
Why you still have ps1?
Haha My cousin had this game too ! Oh, the memories... 😤
Hairline fractures in the solder to GPU.
0:40 what language is that?
Your bios is corrupted, Please plug your playstation into a personal computer, upload your bios (the file that starts with SCPH-) to your computer, and then try using uncorruption software, and then put the result into the ps1 but give the file the same name as the bios file, and replace the old bios.
its not modded it happened to me when i was using my epsxe emulator
Was anyone else waiting for something wrong to happen, and then the video finished?
I noticed absolutely nothing wrong...lol
old days, if you Trick the system, you can bugged the system, now a days if you try trick the system, error messages show up and stop you
Could be the first screen was definitely disc related I used to play CDs on my ps1 when I didn't want to use my stereo u guys know they used a ps1 cpu on the voyager missions? because it's so dependable 40 years later it's still workin and in interstellar space! usually the best way to play is on og hardware I think on the ps3 as it's backwards compatible with PS1 games plus it upscales it to HD but getting a ps1 game is really expensive nowadays I usually just use emulators on my phone or PC I do have a ps5 and switch but of course it's not backwards compatible as it's too expensive I guess for companies also a licensing problem too I hope more comes to NSO expansion pass and ps plus premium but even that is emulation
idk exactly whats wrong but i think its suffering from whats commonly known as ligma
Normal people when PlayStation 1:
Nintendo fans when PlayStation 1:
IS THAT THE SEGA DREAMSTATION?
shit, i really miss my ps1...
It’s entered the warp zone 😂
You should have gotten the ps1 slim version. Older models have major lag problems
oh god i remember this was how my ps1 got corrupted (the ps1 was my first game console when i was 6 btw) i remember back between age 5 and 6 i had good memories of playing speed punks, bomberman fantasy race, crash bash, super puzzle fighter, jet moto 2 and 3, namco museum with ms pac man and even some shitty games that we got at zellers later on like xs moto, crossroad crisis, top shop and bob the builder can we fix it
but anyways during the summer of 2004 this was around the time the local jumbo video that sold us rare ps1 games that now cost hundreds closed down and in its place was a middle eastren market (as this was the 2000s) (it kinda sucked because i wanted to get a copy of tail concerto there to play during the summer which is now a 300 dollar game)
around this time my ps1 got corrupted in the same way as this video, i tried reseting the ps2 many times but the ps1 logo got corrupted so much to the point where the ps1 logo was just a bunch of fucked up polygons that were stretched out and the midi chip was so out of sync that the startup sounded like someone banging a piano
we had to give away the ps1 and during that summer i had to play educational games on my dads windows 95 pc (we didn't get internet until 2005 or so) (the last ps1 game i ever played was motocross mania)
originally i wanted to get a gamecube (to go with my gameboy advanced) but then i wanted a dreamcast (due to the nostalgia the sega name had when it comes to going to the skylon tower arcade and playing daytona usa as a very young kid) but eventually i got a ps2 with crazy taxi and sly 2 (as you may have heard in my tik tok) and the rest is history
Educational games? Damn
Bro i have the same tv but with ps4 its give me only 480 how can i make it back 1080
thats disc reader corruption, the disc lasers thought this was pirated/modded version of the game but it was not, secondly hardware failure too because the numbers on the ps1. logo too
Here before it blows up
i found an easter egg that is you type awesome in the video you will get Rainbow progess bar!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! copy and paste if you want them to know this
Nah its fine
get slimmer version.
When Sony makes slimmer consoles, they tend to fix these issues and other things.
But I'm not sure if they did with PS1 slim or PS2 slim.
IE: PS3 Slim/ Super Slim fixed Yellow Light of Death,
PS4 Slim/ Pro fixed Blue Light of Death and Red Light of Death
PS5 Digital fixed any faulty disc drives lol
wait the ps4 fat had a light of death?
I been playing with the fat since 2014 and it never died
Here's some info that contradicts your statement. (I don't get why I'm doing this.)
The PS3 Slim still suffered from the YLOD and numerous other problems. The PS3 Super Slim was no different, but the YLOD was seeming replaced by a blank light. The PS4 Slim and Pro also would still suffer from BLOD / RLOD. On some of the PS4 Pro launch units, they sounded like a jet engine before beeping 3 times and turning off.
i dont think ps1 slim exists... PsOne do, which just a slight redesign of the original.. but cant call it slimmer
@@gilbert64 My PS3 hasn't yellow lighted either
@@araigumakiruno It is slimmer actually
I have this
congrats you got on the UA-cam algorithm
I remember that some (rare) games were able to display custom text on this PS logo screen. Probably it was a bug in the game, not the console? Or does it happens to other games, too?
maybe a pirated game???
@@lemon66111 not necessarily. What I mean is, games are able to display custom text in the PS screen, so the bug may be in the game but not the console (that is, if it doesn't happens on other games too)
V-ram issues. Another comment thread tried to figure out what was wrong as well.
@@mesquitadaniella it depends, you see the gane boot screen with the ps logo is actually stored on each disc, not the system bios, so if the custom text is legit words, then it's probably pirated and someone tampered with the game files, but if it's jibberish like the video, then it's bugged
Most probably your games weren't legit.
Looks like some kind of VRAM issue. If it was RAM, it would crash. If it was BIOS, it wouldn't boot.
See if your GPU/CPU is faulty, this ain't normal, and a chance of this being a bios problem is small, since the game also is a bit strange.
Why UA-cam is recommending me a 6 year old PS1 error in 2022.
Eventually It's for the first time I have seen PS1 in my life in this video...
Childhood be like:
White screen: 😃
Blue Screen: 😐
Black Screen: 😄 🤨 😡 😠
when Playstation comes into peestation
If your games had backforward compatibility support or remastered versions in further systems, I suggest you tried those remastered instead
Damm, a lot of people below who clearly think they understand electronics, but they don't... Will be bad caps
