I am having a problem playing my personal backups on my playstation 2, CD-R's work, and a chipped game i borrowed of someone works fine, which is a DVD, but the games i copy dont work, i am copying to TUFF DISK media. Do you think the problem may the cheap DVD's. I am just new to the chip stuff.

Stay away from Memorex and look for Made in Japan on the labeles and you'll be good to go..

Also burn with DVD Decrypter ISO Read then ISO Write at 2x or 4x

Make sure your writer supports the type and burn speed though.

I think this post should probably be on hold for the time being, since i just found out that my PS2 actually has a infinity clone in it, which is no longer functional because i changed the settings in the config screen, any one know how to get a MODBO back up and running if i reflash the bios using swap magic will it work??
