GS v1.3 swap question

[troist]

im not using any mods, (i use knife method where you make you tray eject with a plastic knife) my ps2 is first version, sph3000 or something, and v1.3 gs. I stopped playing my PS2 a year ago, all back ups that i had worked fine with knife method. I just came back to PS2 scene and so far i got soul cal 2 (not loading) and Armored core3 which hangs on mission load screens, made 3 coasters of that too.
