    My Madden10 and Call of duty World At War Final Fonts backups worked but my Smackdown Here Comes The Pain wont. It was a big file called mdf and a little one called mds. I used daemon tools to mount the mdf then i created iso out of it from IMGBURN(it came out SMHCP.iso and SMHCP.mds. ESR patched it and after this i burned the iso. I loaded it up with esr and it doesnt change colors like the games above, it just stays black. I tried other games after this and it worked. Do i have to delete the mds file before burning or something?
    Thanks for the help

    When you have both .mdf and .mds, it was created with Alcohol 120

    Best too use that too burn the image then and select Playstation 2 as 'Datatype'

    It doesn't always work to create the ISO image with imgburn for some reason

    When you have an ISO image and .mds, the .mds usually is only needed in Dual Layer games. It is a media descriptor file, and shows the layer break info needed.
    Imgburn will usually load it for you anyway if you didn't select it first.
