    jdawg1979,

    I get the ps2 games from torrent sites
    like i told u yesterday.
    i get 2 folders and 3 files everytime i download a game
    the file SpeedDial is around 58 bytes the .CVM file is the main file its 1.20 Gig. "depends on the size of the game"
    the 2 folders are Module & drivers.
    Everything together is 1.21Gig
    i always find those folder & file when i download games more then 850mb.
    i can't be more specific then that
    thx anyways.

    Sorry fesh.

    I cant help you. I have never done it that way. All I can say is find the original and then make your backup. I you dont have the original be creative(BlockB&*@#r).

    hello all,

    i just registered today, but i have been reading these forums and learning up on the ps2 backup methods for the past week or two now, while waiting for my swapmagic/fliptop combo to come.

    i now have swap magic CD and DVD versions 3.3, and the fliptop successfully installed.

    unfortunately, i cannot seem to get any games that i burn to run! here are my specs and stuff:

    swap magic 3.3/fliptop
    version 7 ps2
    Sony DVD+RW DRU-120A (it's really old)
    Maxell DVD+R 4x discs

    to burn, i've used both the DVD Decrypter method mentioned in this post, as well as the Alcohol 120% method in this post http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/1/121556

    i've wasted about 5 DVD+R's only to have the swap magic proclaim to me that they are not valid ps2 discs.

    i'm not sure of the quality of maxell discs... should i go out and buy some better media? i havn't tried DVD-R at all because my burner only does DVD+R, but i've burned DVD movies on DVD+R and my ps2 can read them fine, plus it's a freakin v7. do i need to go buy a better burner to make a viable backup?

    any help would be appreciated - thanks.

    Hey I have a problem. I just got a new benq 1620 dvd drive. I am trying to burn some ISO game files I have. When I go to burn the ISO file of the game in alcohol 120%, I have no burner to choose, and I cannot even burn. But if i select say a regular file mp3 or something, i have the option to burn.

    Any idea? I need help, thanks guys

    you need to download dvd loader,there are various methods,of using it,depends on what game i.e ea methods etc.search around for instructions,i am not too sure how to use it.i think you boot up swap dvd,take out,boot up dvd loader,enter option on sub menu,eject dvd loader,back in with swap dvd,then backup disc.

    I dont understand. Like all I have to do is burn the image files onto the DVD, but it is not giving me the option to select a burner when i go to the image burning wizard. But If i choose say a bin and cue file, from other downloads, it displays them no problem and i can burn.
