@avih: After some testing I think it's more BIOS related than a PCSX2 problem.
I have 2 versions: PAL 1.60 and PAL 2.00 (both legal).
Dsic detection doesn't seem to work to work with 1.60 causing PCSX2 not to load any patches or CRC hacks. (2.00 works fine)
Here are the logs (full boot):
1.60:

Maybe some can test if this happens with NTSC versions as well or its an PAL only problem?
Tested 5-6 Games always the same results, only BIOS makes a difference.
