Hi, Just recently joind I have read the rules and searched.

What I use:
ISO buster
DVDcrpter
DVDGEN(or w/e)
Swap Magic 3.6
Slimline ps2 v 00012 or w/e

I am able to rebuild the image without a problem until I put it in my ps2. When i use swap magic it goes to the load program screen (i assume thats asking for backup game etc) when i load my game(digital devil sega) it doesnt do anything all i see is invalid ps2 game. When I put my orginal disk of xenosega(my digital devil sega is badly scratched so i had to use my iso image i made 5 months ago) it says the samething however when i select load program it runs the game!?
Can anyone help me out? I have to go to class But someone please help if you can I have searched the threads and no one is running into this problem did I get screwed bc im using Sony DVD-R I also have TDK DVD-R I used TDK first im currently goin to try and use Sony....Thank you.

*update* I Also Get 3 errors instead of two when i click on rec in the dvdgen software. i get the apsi or w/e error 2x and a faild to ultize error once i assume thts normal but the 2 apsi errors?

did you buy an aftermarket flip top, slimtool, Magic Switch
to go with your Swap Magic? If not you are having this problem
because the PSTwo is resetting when you open it to swap discs.
Most games do not have to be rebuilt.
try using just DVD Decrypter, burn the ISO at 4X
The TDK DVD-R should work fine if they are 4X or 8X

what do you mean resetting. Yes i dont have the after market fliptop so because im opening the top it causes the swapmagic or ps2 to reset because when i switch discs the loading screen stays the same ex load program stays there but when i put in my burnt copy it says invalid ps2 disc.
