Hi all, I have looked endlessly recently to try and solve my problem however to no avail. Been a while since i have used me ps2 but it all still works like it used too.
Firslty I have a PS2 (SCPH-3003, 7 screws on the underneath) that has been chipped (dont know which type) for 3 or more years. I use Action Replay V2 to start the games I have.
However i decided to make my own back up games, but no joy in doing so.
I am using DVD-r's (various media types including maxell)
Burning at slow speeds, x4 or slower.
Nero or dvd decryptor for burning.
Burning the unrared image file.

However when I go to play the game it will not boot after the AR V2 swap. I have tried various booting procedures to see if it works, but it wont.
I have succesfully downloaded a cd game for test purposes (oni) onto a cd and that boots fine. But I cant get any DVD-r's to work
However I have noticed the backup games i have and that work are all on cds. is it just because my ps2 only plays cd backups or is there a way around to playing dvd-r's with what i have.
If there is no solution what is a best, cheapest way to play backup dvd-r's.

can any help!!

Thanks

p.s
I am no pc whizz or console buff, just very mediocre at both.
