    Chill man, I was just giving you advice since you didnt know where DVD burners were sold. If someone is going to answer you, they will do it just as fast even if I hadn't posted.
    PS: searching would be a good way to find your answer. If that fails, how bout making your own topic? really has nothing to do with a FAQ list.

    No worries ShadowNyt, I appreciate contributions and I'm sure the people who need the FAQs list do too.

    No problems Ender88

    Umm - I think there was some confusion with the order of our posts - "sobhy2406" I was not offering to you to be able to strip my work and claim it to be your own...

    I was actually talking to Ender88 (asking if he did not mind my adding my links to his thread - being polite one might say) - I can almost see where you could have become confused... either way - please do not do that sort of thing again...

    That's ok - no biggy - I probably over reacted a little there...

    Are there any problems with backing up a backed up game? Do you need the original to burn a game or can you just copy a copy?

    Thanks

    You can burn a backed up game. The logic is its a 1:1 backup of the original, the same exact thing (without the physical alteration but the burner doesnt read it anyways). The only problem is is that the farther you get from the origianl, the more chance of error builds up. If you make one with an error then make another from the one with an error, it will burn the error, plus new ones (if any) and the patter continues. It's just more reliable to burn from the original, although you probably wont notice anything.

    worn or dirty laser will cause this - clean and adjust is probably in order.

    If it is chipped the install may need to be checked to make sure nothing is loose.

    see my sig for laser cleaning

    Hi Ender88,
    I read your reply on burning an original game with DVD Decrypter and found it useful. My question is, What do you do when a game is larger than 4.4gig and wont fit onto a single dvd-r or dvd+r disc. How can it be shrunk.

    The game must have been a DVD 9 which is dual layer. There are different things you can do: itca be shrunk (textures and stuff taken out), split in two DVDs or burned on a DVD DL burner, which I'm sure you wont have access to. It's up to you which way to go, I personally dont have any DVD9 games, so I'm sure someone can guide you through it.
