I'm sorry to ask, but does anyone know why the rar file I extracted from a rar file only gives me an iso and nothing else? Does anyone know how to get the image for it?

the .iso IS the image. Just burn that. The .mds file is just a small file with info about the image, you don't have to have it.

sure they look ok. But you said you burnt it to a disc, those files are on your hard drive.

those were the same files on the disc after I burned them, and I tested it today in a modded ps2 but no go. Do you know what I did wrong?

did you burn the iso, or the individual files? Also, what chip do you have, i might need to be flashed.

Are you using the slide card correctly? You need to open and close the tray with the slide card.

ya i did open and close it correctly, but still wont work. Do you think is a media problem? because my reg back up works fine. I also have a question concerning the burning of the iso, because I'm wondering how come only A120 allow me to burn the iso but not decrytor, because every time I tried to burn it with decrytor I get an error message.

Thanks for keeping up with my problems

oh sly i finally got it to work, thanks for all your help, but I have one last question, and that is I cant control the burning speed for decrypter, because everytime I tried to burn it at 1x, it always go back to 4x minimum, so you have any idea how I can fix it?

It has to do with the discs your using, your burner, your firmware, etc. As long as your using high quality discs, burning at 4x is fine.
