Either enable the "no-umd" option in your recovery menu or download one of the M33 firmwares that allow better no-umd functionality as dax's cfw's don't really support it as much. And well of course, you have to be at a custom firmware.

No one uses iso loaders anymore, fast loader was my favourite.

I highly recommend getting the 3.52 M33 Firmware
It has the best no-umd functionallity yet. I tried to run a few ISOs on OE Firmware, but it wouldn't work. But I switched an now all ISO's run perfectly

Help Please fw 3.52

NatalieCZ... It wont work because your on the Sony's official firmware, you need custom firmware to be able to play iso files. In order to get to custom firmware you need to downgrade to 1.50. However the only firmwares at this present time capable of being downgraded to 1.50 are 3.50 or lower. So your out of luck until the next downgrader is developed.
downgrade error

Did you not read what i just wrote... i said you cant downgrade because your not at 3.50 firmware or lower. 3.52 is higher than 3.50. There are no downgraders for anything beyond 3.50 yet.

For all of you:
You need to go into recovery mode > Configuration > Put NO-UMD mode to either "np9660" or "M33 driver"
You should be able to play your games then.
