It had DRE error so i took everything all apart, now is it possible if i can hook hook up the power supply, dvd and controller and start it up from there with out putting it back together?

As long as you haven't torn the power ribbon, yeah.
stupid ps2 power ribbons, those things are a bitch
Just be very careful not to touch the PSU while it's running as you'll get a pretty good jolt, trust me I've done it, and it's not nice!!Originally Posted by Fudgexx

No. PC drives generally use IDE/SATA connectors. Neither are found on PS2 motherboard. Also, you've yanked off the bits of plastic that go over the chipset (Emotion Engine etc) Don't even bother booting it without replacing them.

i already booted it and its working lol
You'll kill it if you don't cool those chips.
You've obviously never heard of the network adapter, then.
If you're going to be a pedant, at least be correct - neither are found on the PS2 motherboard. They're added through the expansion socket. In any case the question was regarding optical drives, which the network adapter wouldn't support.
Me too. Placed one on a large sheet of metal (covered in plaster) that I thought was plastic before too - got quite a shock!
Jesus christ. Clean that board before you put it back together. That dust will definitely kill it.
:lol:
