When i try to run any ISO from the ISO selector and use full boot i get sent to the PS2 selection screen for memory cards and the disc. When i select the disc it starts loading then boots me back to the selection screen i was just at. When i use Boot fast it runs fine but Amplitude freezes at the loading screen. The workarounds i've seen require boot full. I am running the .9.8 build of PCSX2
The loaded PS2 BIOS is incompatible with NTSC or PAL disc/iso depending your PS2's region.
Indeed, using full boot will trigger the region protection some games have. Fast boot gets around that, but if you need to use full boot and the game has region protection you will need a bios of the same region as the game to run it I'm afraid.
Only game I use Full Boot for is Dirge of Cerberus (Got the PAL Version). Mainly cause the game will be in japanese (Menu text, Subtitles) if you use fast boot, but if you use full boot the game is just normal in english (100%)

was about to make my 1st thread asking if i needed a different region BIOS for PAL/NTSC-J games but you just answered it for me in that it depends on the game+^_^+ well, the pawn shop near here has like 50 PS2s, im sure 1 or 2 are imports+^_^+
