Could I have some help making sure I understand this right about the disc swap trick?
So, I know that the disc swap trick can wear down the disc drive, so before I fuck it up, I decided to halt trying to do it after I had some trouble and did a little more research.
If my PSX is SPCH-7501, the disc swap trick probably won't work, even just to install Unirom, right? I've seen some pages that say it won't work and some that say you have to try doing specific methods. I was trying to do it the way I saw on Youtube, where you hold the button down with a toothpick (or something similar) with the lid open and swap the discs once. (I was having trouble with the multiple swaps because my hands are really clumsy sometimes.)

Are bootleg PSX power supplies reliable?
I've been trying to find a 220v power supply for my console for a while, as my original power supply is 110v and where I live now we don't have 110v sockets anymore.
However, I had no luck finding an original one on my local marketplaces, and even on eBay it's kind of a pain to find and it's often pricy as hell -- and since it's been almost 20 years since the last time I turned it on, I'm not even sure it'll work, so I wasn't looking forward to spend too much on it.
So I was wondering if cheap knockoffs like this one will at least not end up frying my console after a while.

Does scratch through top of game disc always mean a game disc is dead?
I just acquired a final fantasy PS1 collection of almost every game. As a younger guy I’ve only played these through emulation, and not yet original hardware.
I was checking the quality of disc, and most of them are very clean on the bottom for the exception of FF VIII which has bad circular light scratches throughout the whole disk. Also maybe 1 or 2 minor deep scratches on a couple disc, but not deep enough for my finger nail to catch when I light run it over.
Also something else that concerns me is I read online that if the label of disc (top of disc) has scratches than the game data is essentially unreadable, and the game is dead, or some point or another will freeze an not work.
I’ve noticed some of these disc in collection do have these imperfections when shinning light through label side to bottom of disc, and was wondering what the general consensus is on this subject. I have a SCPH-9001 ps1, and heard that they have the best laser out of all the models, and was wondering if this would help with scratches on top and bottom of disc.
Thanks for any information it’s very much appreciated. I would think have such a flaw as a disc being completely bricked by scratches on top of disc would be out of possibility, but hey what do I know I’m a young guy that’s only emulated up to this point.

Trying to remember an rpg i played as a kid.
*edit* turns out it was grandia 2*
I'm trying to figure out the name of a game i played sometimes when I was a kid. One of my babysitters had a ps2 and let me play their games.
I remember they had a ps1 game that was kind of like final fantasy and sort of looked like final fantasy 7 graphically
I never got super far but i remember the game starts and the main character is like a bounty hunter or monster slayer and hes bathing in monster blood and i remember early on like the first village you go to ends up getting burned down and you have to fight this like succubus demon lady who i think later on can join your party

PSX Memory Card Issue/ Question
Team,
My memory card can have MGS saved to it -- and I can load the files from/ save games to it; BUT when I go into the memory card editor and I don't see any icons. Is this a memory card issue?
The issue has persisted after cleaning my memory card with alcohol and happens on SLOT 1 & SLOT 2.
Thanks ahead of time for the help!

Any recommendations on a laser replacement.
So I dug my PSX outta of storage recently and I think the laser went bad. I took it apart and cleaned/greased the gears and rails. Still no luck. I know the laser is at least lifting and it plays music CD’s. My back ups work just fine on my modded PS3 so I don’t think it’s that. Does anyone have any recommendations to buy a replacement?
It’s a KSM-440AEM for a 9001 model. I seen a few places but id rather go somewhere recommended. Tempted to just buy another system, I think a 7501 is the same as the 9001, just with the serial port intact. Seen a few working ones for like $50

Sticky eject and power buttons on psone. Worth it to return or easy home fix?
Hi guys, getting back into retro gaming and collecting. I ended up buying a psone console with a controller, memory card (intec inc memory card 2x, 30 blocks), and four games (crash bash, crash bandicoot, twisted metal 4, Spider-Man, all for $80 with shipping included.
The console is pretty good shape. It was packaged very poorly for shipping however and did suffer some scuffs. I can make do with that, but I noticed the power and eject buttons stick in place when pushed down. This was not mentioned in the description of the item by the seller. It was also heavily raining all day. My mom brought my box/package indoors after about an hour of being out in the downpour. Nothing inside seems wet, but a bit nervous to power it on.
My question: are the sticky buttons an easy fix or should I use this as grounds to return the item? If it’s an easy fix, I’d rather just keep it.
Ps: can I wipe the console down with 91% isopropyl rubbing alcohol or will it destroy the plastic and paint/writing on the console? Is my memory card any good, or should I buy a new one. I only recall back in my young days that I had issues with madkatz memory cards for GameCube where save data would get wiped after a certain period of time randomly.
