you can try using an older pcsx2 version (around 1.4.0, i think), but we don't support old versions.
OR
using the pnach system instead of codebreaker

can i still use my save files from this version to the older one?
and i'm very new to the whole emulation scene and pnach seemed extremely complicated for me to use

memcards->yes
savestates->no

pnach isn't that hard. moreover, the community has created a bunch of them

With codebreaker,try disabling the Auto Eject option from the codebreaker settings

Codebreaker used to work on early 1.5.0 dev builds. I could go all the way up to the point where it tells you to swap to the game disc, then swap the ISO to the game's ISO, then press X and it would work. From a later 1.5.0 build onwards, pressing X there would cause PCSX2 to hang.
