    Hi All,

    Ok i have finally found a way to load my PS2 dvd back ups onto my hard drive BUT have a strange problem.
    Games that are over 3gb dont seem to want to load onto the hard drive.
    They load until about 76% and then they have errors.
    Has anyone else has this problem?
    Does anyone know how to load these games?
    Please help.

    Regards .com

    Hi,

    Ok here goes.
    Step 1/.Load Hd Loader original.
    Step 2/.Eject Hd Loader and install original game (One with a hi toc but unsure which ones have and have not,Am using eye toy play and socom 1) andlet load for about 20 seconds.
    Step 3/.Then click on install but dont click continue just yet and swap original for PS2 dvd back up using either knife trick or flip top (i have just ordered a flip top but for the moment i have the lid off).
    Step 4/.Click continue,name it and then it loads BUT a few games get about 70-75% and then have load errors.
    I am thinking it has to do with the game being bigger than the hi toc disc.
    Is that correct or not?
    Do you know what other ppl use for there hi toc discs?

    Regards

    yeah, your original probably is not big enough. the only high toc games i can think of at the moment include grand theft auto 3 or vice city.

    Devil May Cry 1 is a high TOC disk too and since it is part of the Greatest Hits collection it is only $20 new.
