I'll try a powered hub (I have one with a 2A PSU, it should be plenty), if that solves the issue then most likely it's the current draw that is the issue as you said. Oh I see, so they draw a lot of current, that explains why all the USB devices attached disconnect. There are more games but they replicate the same behaviour as te previously mentioned games.Need For Speed Underground 2: Gets stuck to a black screen, then stuck at the "Play Station 2" screen, then it loads.Harry Potter Quidditch World Cup: Gets stuck to a black screen, then stuck at the "Play Station 2" screen, then at the first loading screen, then it loads.Gran Turismo 4: Gets stuck at the disclaimer screen prior to the first intro video, then it loads.Disabling either of those or both at the same time didn't change the result, games still got stuck. I re-insert the drive, finishes loading and lets me play: I expected games to fully load just like with the "SiliconPower "The Simpsons" USB 2.0 8GB drive. Get stuck at any point while the game loads.Load any game (with PADEMU and VMC enabled to mimic my setup).Use the same USB drive (or something equivalent to it I guess) to load games.Information about affected games (if any): All games.Console Model: SCPH-79001 with latest FMCB (1.966) and no modchip.If I use another USB drive ( SiliconPower "The Simpsons" USB 2.0 8GB), config files and games take longer to load but never get stuck and I can play without issues.īoth USB drives are FAT32 formatted and fully defragmented. Some games eventually get stuck again and removing and re-inserting the USB drive solves the loading issue again. If I remove the USB drive in question an re-insert it, the game continues to load starts working again.

Controller inputs stop being recognised (original PS2 and PADEMU controllers) when games get stuck. USB games get stuck when loading with a specific USB drive ( SanDisk Ultra USB 3.0 128GB), each game at a different time.
