If I load the Swap Magic 3.0 (CD version Europe build), I will come to a screen with 'Load Program' and 'Video Mode : Normal'. I will then swap discs with my backup PS2 game (using the slide tool) and select Load Program. The screen will then change to a sort of 'outer-space shot (red stars, black background), and a blue and red striped border. But nothing else will happen!
If I load the Swap Magic (DVD version 2.0 EUR build), I will come to a screen with 'Insert Disc' and a 'shooting stars' background. I insert a disc with the slide tool and nothing happens until I press a button on my game pad. Then the screen stops (the stars stop shooting!) And later a pink border appears at the top and bottom of the screen. But nothing else will happen!
after inserting the back up game you should press x on joypad,if screen gives red border back up is no good,you should get blue border then game should load.
what game is it and what software are you using to back up...
thanks for the reply.....the dvd game is mortla kombat deadly alliance and its an import and the cd game is winning eleven 8....downloaded from the internet....i used Nero to back my games
did you get winning eleven 8 to work, because i also have a problem, but when i start it with X it loads fine but then freezes when you Kick-OFF, and when i start it with Square it says "Insert Ps2 format disk"
Winning eleven 8 is a dvdrip that's your problem.
If it's under 630 megs try using cdloader worked with monopoly party for me, if it's over 630megs you have to get breaker pro.
About the import try this:
insert cd version, press eject, use big toc disc for toc refresh, swap with import.
try booting with x, if that doesn't work boot with square.
