Hi peeps , I have HDadvance DVD and CD. Some of the games I have wont backup (i know theres issues with some) The question I am going to ask is. Can I use HDadvance just to boot up the PS2 then do swap trick to fool PS2 into booting the backup. If so whats the procedure. I have tried many times without succsess although I did do it once but forgot what I did. I have young kids and I always back my games onto copied dvd just incase and my fav game ended up in 3 bits inside my VCR ( I was not happy) hence why I want to boot it up , but it wont copy onto Hard drive. Any ideas?
You can load the game off the HD to load your backups. Here's a tutorial: http://www.hdadvance.com/hd_advance_how-to-use.htm Compatiblity list for HD advance: http://forum.hdadvance.com/hd_advance_compatibility.asp
Thats what I said in my post it wont copy onto the HDD (the origonal didnt either) so I am wondering if you can use HDadvance like swap magic or something similar
I have tried using the PS2 and Windows , the game wont run of a hdd. Hence why I need to boot it from disk
No Winhiip is a program you use to transfer games from your PC to your PS2 hard drive. http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/245272 Why won't games run off your HD? You mean you can't transfer them or, do you mean you haven't been able to create an iso on your PC? I don't understand what you mean. Be a little more specific about what the problem is.
OK i am sorry I try. Basically the game transfers to HDD no problem but wont play when run is selected the PS2 crashes.
ok thanks for the great links but when you try clicking on them all you get is an error page. I even tried going directly to the home page but still errors.

When I load up my HD Advance/HDloader, it just goes to the PS2 browser menu, what's going on? A.
