    it depends on what version of ps2 you have and how much you wanna spend

    there are fliptop cases for v4-v11

    and tools for v12

    im in uk
    and use http://techwizad.com/

    Yeah, like johnim said, it depends on how much you are willing to spend. Swap magic is a good cheap way and it doesnt void your warrenty, the flip-top replacement cases make everything a whole lot easyier.

    other than easier(flip kind) is that all i have to do in order to burn the ps2...iso read..iso write...and just swap disk and it should work...even tho swap is more work but its all good if it works

    Thats all you got to do. The actual replacing the case with the flip top, its actually really easy.

    Just be careful regarding what speed you burn the game at. To be on the safe side, I would advise not burning at anymore than 4x.

    i'm i suppose to write the big file or the small file..

    big file = 3,141,760 kb (type Easy Creator Image)
    small = 5 kb (type MDS file)

    i read some where saying burn the small file so now i'm not sure if i'm suppose to do the big one or small one

    many many thanks

    Yes you are supposed to burn the small (MDS) file as it has the info of the ISO :)
