Anti-Modchip Games
Some import games are protected against an import device called a "Mod Chip".  These devices are installed in many playstation machines to allow a user to play import games.  When playing an original game the user will be presented with a screen saying that the playstation has been modified and the game can not continue.  The Playstation Boot-Disc  has a facility to allow you to play those original games and even enter cheat codes that are for the Game Shark(tm) and other cheat devices.  Simply put, you can play all anti-modchip games and even use all your favorite gameshark(tm) codes for more lives, health, ammo, etc..
First you will need your cheat codes or anti-mod codes, how to obtain these is detailed later.  Insert the The Playstation Boot-Disc and boot as normal.  When the screen appears that asks you to "Please Insert  Import Disk and Press Start" press the "SELECT" button on the Joypad.  This will take you to a screen full of blank codes.  Enter each code in turn as it appears on the web site or magazine.  Use the direction pad and the O and X buttons to enter the code.  Each game will have its own different cheat codes/anti-mod codes, pay particular attention to the origin of the game.  I.E. Japanese game will have different codes than the USA version of that game with the same name, however, the Japanese code will not work on the USA version of the game and vice-versa.   If you enter the wrong codes do not worry it will not do any harm, but the game may not run and may even crash if the wrong codes are entered.
You can enter up to 30 codes.  If you need to enter more than 6 codes then moving the cursor down past the 6th line will scroll the screen up one line.  Once you go past the 30th code the cursor will go back to the first code.  Pressing select at any time will toggle between the "Please Insert Import Game And Press Start" screen and the codes screen.  Codes will remain unchanged when you do this.
Websites containing cheat codes and anti-modchips code:  http://www.megagames.com/psx
Most of the recent released PSX games are protected and are able to detect if a mod chip or mod cd has been installed.  When it finds one it will show the picture below and it stops playing the game.
