Hello everyone, I have a problem with my copied games. I use DVD Decrypt to backup my games. It says it was copied successfully. Then I use the Game Shark and swap method to play the game and it doest work. Can you use the Swap method with the gameshark to play backup games? It works with a regular ps2 game or ps1 game just not my dvd games. My system is old ....Model Number SCPH 30001
I a using Memorex DVD+R DVD's and a Memorex DVD Burner and like I said using DVD Decrypt. Am I doing something wrong? Or do I need to invest in a mod chip?
Thanks for any help.

first off get better media, Memorex discs are crap.
they have about a 50/50 chance of working.
very few people have good luck with them. I have had
no luck at all.
May even want to try some DVD-R media.
Other than that i would invest in either a mod chip
or a set of Swap Magic discs.

Get Swap magic (3.6)
will work much better for loading back up games
since that is what is was designed for.
and knowing what games you are all talking about would
help. That way people could tell you if they need to be
rebuilt or patched before burning them.
"My game won't work" is hardly enough information to even
start guessing as to why. there are many reasons so more
info would help narrow the possibilities.
PS2's are very picky about what media they like.
I use Philips 8X DVD-R and they work great
Also TDK works well.
Here is a DVD Decrypter tutorial to help out.
