Hello , i hope u know wats swap-magic , am sure lots of people use it around ~
Well , my ps2 is an old one , so not slim ~ When i load the backup copy , the game seems working very fine , but the screen keeps jumping , yes the video ~ the color is black and white and i can barely read it. But the sounds works perfectly ... i can hear the great music and sound. But with the first time using swap magic , playing devil may cry 3 , the intro was jumpy but then , it worked normally ... but when i retried it , now it keeps jumping all the way ~ anyone knows wats the problem? please helppp thanks.
Am using a old swap magic i think , 2.0 usa ver/dvd + 3.0 usa ver/cd
All i see at boot screen is , Insert disk , not anything else~ so i cant change video mode. And yes i did the steps correctly , playing a original game works fine but not backups. Please help!!!!

Your probably just using a really crappy media...don't use CD-r's they simply do not do the job...don't go cheap on DVD-R they work a lot better and its worth your money

ayashifx, Memorex is crappy media, not quality
The only time i ever saw a game do that is when
i tried to play PAL games on my NTSC system.
Other than that, have you had any games work?
Is it just this game that is a problem?
wolf23 , yes. Swap Magic alone will not work.
I suggest a flip top, they make them for the slim
and the older models. And yes i know the slim has a
flip top but you need to replace that one. It causes the
PSTwo to reset when opened so you can't swap discs.

When you played your PAL games on NTSC, was the edge of the game screen sliced off?
Its good that you found a fix, but my SwapMagic could choose NTSC or PAL video mode.

yea they were slicing off , coulnt even read wats written , the reason why i could play devil may cry 3 was , at begining , surely by luck , i chosed 60 NTSC option , so it worked for the first time ... Yup , am happy also lolz that my swap magic 2.0 is able to play new games. Well i bought it like for 10 bucks so haha XD i cant really complain much.

I also have a question if you guys dunt mind ... Why Flip top is recommended? I have no flip top using old ps2 and old swap magic 2.0 things works perfectly , just that the old ps2 is slower then the new one ... So wat is the advantage? thanks.

what do you mean?
you can not load a back up game with just
Swap magic. Are you using a slide card?
The advantage it that a flip top is easier to use
than a slide card.
and since he is using 2.o he will have to use fixes
because that swap magic did not have screen modes
from what i rememeber it was not an option until 3.0
