Solution to "Loading GUI String Table...FAILED"

I have taken the time to read through this thread as thoroughally as possible. I am having CONSIDERABLE difficulty getting MyPS2 1.2 to boot up. I've written my Config file exactly as outlined, using MYPS2 (all caps) for the folder name and +MYPS2 for the Partition name.

Before trying this, I tried installing it to the Boot partition, only to receive a Loading GUI String Table Failure. After making a new partition for the program, I came to receive the exact same error.

My Config file is as follows, and has the 27th line blank as it should be

scr_adjust_x = 0
scr_adjust_y = 0
scr_mode = 255
scr_screenshot = 1
scr_path = host:/
tbn_caching = 1
tbn_cache_path = pfs0:/THUMBCACHE/
net_enable = 1
net_ip = 192.168.0.10
net_netmask = 255.255.255.0
net_gateway = 192.168.0.1
net_dns = 195.50.140.114
net_smb_debug = 0
ftp_enable = 1
ftp_port = 21
ftp_anonymous = 0
ftp_login = myPS2
ftp_password = myPS2
radio_cache_list = 0
lang_file = english.xml
lang_charset = ISO-8859-1
skin_name = default
time_timezone = 60
time_dst = 0
hdd_boot_part = hdd0:+MYPS2
hdd_boot_path =/MYPS2/

The partition and the folder names both line up, but it is STILL giving me a GUI failure. Can someone PLEASE help me out with this and double-check this for me? I want to get this working, so I can repeat the process as a christmas present

Hi, i've trying getting this to work, but i couldn't. Here is my config.dat:

scr_adjust_x		= 0
scr_adjust_y		= 0
scr_mode		= 255
scr_screenshot		= 1
scr_path		= host:/
tbn_caching		= 1
tbn_cache_path		= pfs0:/THUMBCACHE/
net_enable		= 1
net_ip			= 192.168.0.10
net_netmask		= 255.255.255.0
net_gateway		= 192.168.0.1
net_dns			= 195.50.140.114
net_smb_debug		= 0
ftp_enable		= 1
ftp_port		= 21
ftp_anonymous		= 0
ftp_login		= myPS2
ftp_password		= myPS2
radio_cache_list	= 0
lang_file		= english.xml
lang_charset		= ISO-8859-1
skin_name		= default
time_timezone		= 60
time_dst		= 0

Is it ok? It has a blank line in the end, i didn't put the hdd lines because i don't have one. It's a slim ps2, model SCPH-77001 with a Matrix Infinity v1.88 modchip. I'm trying to launch it from a USB drive using uLaunchElf. Thanks in advance.

Hi,

I'm lost within this thread, but here's my situation. I used Dung's Boot CD to install myPS2 into the memory card. However, when I boot up the disc, my ps2 doesn't launch into the "Launch" interface, the blue interface that has "Select - Configuration" "Left - Launch" "Right - Launch" it will just boot directly into myPS2 and everything works with no errors. I want to be able to boot up to that blue screen. What's weird is that I made 2 "exact" cd, one will boot up the launch blue screen, but it has the Loading GUI error. While the other, boot straight into the myps2. what the ? Any idea on this anyone?

My first post here, my lil .02 cents:

I just bought HDLoader 3.8b last week. It has myPS2 on it. (along with hdldump. HDL 3.8b is a good buy IMO) I kept getting the Loading GUI error just trying to run it from the mc!! It turns out I was missing:

/boot/
/fonts/
/language/
/shoutcast/
/skins/
/logs/

folders/files from the mc. (whoever made the disc musta been high that day.)

All I did to fix it was download myPS2, transfered the missing folders/files to the mc, (luckily I could ftp into it using myPS2) and I was up n running. Now that I got it to run off the mc I can finally work on getting it to run off the hd. Those still having the GUI error make sure u have the folders/files listed above. Maybe they need to be in the right directory or something. If u dont have the folders/files download myPS2 to have have fresh default settings and go from there if u made changes here n there.

BTW, I tried transfering the files using CuteFTP.....nada. FlashFXP just seems to be configured right for some reason.
