    WIth help of my brother, I was finally able to obtain BIOS from my PS2 (it's from european region). The file from dumping procedure was named "SCPH-77004_BIOS_VX_PAL_220.BIN" (and there were also files with the same name and extensions: EROM, mec, NVM, ROM1 and ROM2). My brother used ps2dumper.

    I've loaded it into emulator PCSX2 and... By some reason it's showing me, that it's japanese BIOS! To be more specific, in Component's Settings window it's showing me this description:
    Japan v02.20(10/02/2006)

    And in effect, I can't play in any of my games dumped into ISO images, because all I have are european releases. I believe that it's impossible that I'm owner of console from japanese region (otherwise I wouldn't be able to launch on my PS2 european games), so... What can be the reason and how can I fix it?

    Thanks a lot for any help/advices.
