hello everyone, to put it in short this is driving me nut lol. I have a PS2 V12, swap magic 3.6, Alcohol, DvD decrypter, and a NEC 3540. I am trying to back up 3 games Way of the Samurai, Lord of the Rings return of the kins, and True Crime streets of LA. First I tried Way of the Samurai using Clone CD to copy it and it reads it 66% and then it stops and wont read it anymore i also used alcohol and get the same results what can I be doing wrong it says that it cant read a bunch of sectors of the CD. The game works fine and i cleaned it for good measures still with no luck. Next I backed up True Crime and I was able to copy that succesfully. However when I use the CD loader from swapmagic fix I get a red then yellow screen once I try and load the game. When I use just swap magic and no fix I can load and play it, but it gets stuck after awhile so any help on how I can patch it to make it work would be appreciated. I loaded the Cue file fix on a CD and loaded it with swap magic CD. I noticed it says error cant read disk but when I hit the triangle then the X it will say insert DVDR disk and after that is when I get the yellow and red screen. Finnally Lord of the rings return of the king. I used DVD dycypter and alcohol and It starts to read it and says that the operation did not finish and stops. Im really pulling my hair out so any help would be appreciated Thanks!!

for cd loader:
load cd loader with swap magic cd
hit x and choose the 5v3 NO PN option (step may not be needed)
hit eject, insert the swap magic dvd
let it read, and then hit x
it should now say put in dvdr by ea method (or something like that).
swap for true crime and hit x
