Then to be able to play them you need to exploit your PS2 so you can run hddloader.elf to be able to play the games on your hdd.

Do you have a gameshark, codebreaker or some type of cheat disk, as its really easy then to transfer the exploit.

Otherwise you need an original PS1 disk.

Easiest option for you would be to install and load games using HDLoader, it has a brilliant user interface too. To find out if your ps2 is modded, does it play backups?, if yes then your ps2 is modded, if no, youl need an original, "pressed hdloader disc", just the disc itself costs about £30 minimum

F4HAD - you need to read the whole thread before you go posting advice.

The best way too transfer games to hdd is using WinHiip

Maybe not the easiest, but not hard and it is way faster and more reliable in my opinion.

With all due respect, of course I read the whole thread before posting, which is what I always do. I was trying to suggest that anyone who does not have a lot of experience with PS2's running Hard Drives with games on it, should not jump to the "big fish", as it were. For this user, the easiest method would be to use HDLoader.
It is simply impractical to unplug the harddrive from the PS2, and open the casing of your PC to install games to the hard drive, it is a lot easier to just leave your harddrive permanenetly in your ps2, and just using hdloader, but if your experienced, of course, other methods could be used too
