Ok here is the deal...about 98% of my dvd backups work fine...(Except NBA Ballers...ridiciulous load times).

The real problem is with cd's...I have only successfully backed up 2 out of about 20. One (test drive Eve of Destruction), worked fine, the other (Castlevania: Lament of innocence), just loads to the start screen and then goes black.

Has anyone found a pretty sure fire way to use Swap Magic for cd backups?

Also on another note...has anyone noticed how some games get all screwy after backing up?
For example SRS I can drive almost anywhere but then there is one section of the city where the car is in midair and just sits there...??? Spiderman 2 I can swing around, can't talk to anyone and then reach a part of the city where I get suspended in mid air and all I can do is rotate the camera. Does anyone know why this happens?

maybe you should stop downloading games (it is a dvd based game by the way).

But if it is a DVD based game then why would it even load that far?
It shows the Konami logo, the intro...a demo and the start screen...
Technically if it is a DVD game then should'nt it NOT work on CD?

Just don't download your games, it's not recommended unless you know that the games you download are legit rips from the CDs or DVDs otherwise your could be in major trouble running one that has a harmful script or virus built into it.
