Is it possible to burn the Swap-Magic discs? Could I just download an iso, burn it to CD and use them? (I have a slide card and know how to work with them) Someone having experience? PLease Help!

There is no point trying to burn swap magic yes it will work but only if you have an original SM or a modchip which would make it completly pointless.

Thank You Very Much, I read in an Dutch forum that the Swap Magic is made so that it read from the outer to the inner. So it's impossible to copy the disc. With game copy pro you can! (so says the forum) Isn't true?

P.S. Sorry for the bad English

ok. lets finish this one.
can you copy the disc. Yes just like any other
Why do people say you can't?
Well because like what was said above it would be pointless.
You would need an original copy of Swap Magic to load the back up copy that you made. Or you would need to have a modchip to load the back up and if you had a modchip you would not need Swap Magic in the first place.

You really should search as this question gets asked and answered at least once a week.

Maybe they should make a thread about it STICKY and start enforcing it like they do about emails and such in threads heh. Would help a lil I guess.

You shouldn't say something like that if you don't know what you're talking about.... If you'd know how often I search this forum, you wouldn't say that...

Alright little off-topic... ;)

Thank you anyway..

This ? is asked At Least once a week

The Answer NO you can not Backup Swapmagic and expect it to boot with an Orig Swapmagic Disc or some other type of mod...

Swapmagic is a Pressed Disc with certain Secters thata dvd burner CAN NOT Read or reproduce...

look, i have been coming to these forums about 3-4 times a week at least since 2004.
I have 4085 post, most of which tend to being trying to help people like you who seem to never appreciate it.
So trust me when i say i know exactly what i am talking about.
i have answered that question more times than i care to count.
