look, u dont make sense cuz u cant even use a DOT or a question mark . So wtf , it looks like ure 2 year old posted that question. If u want people to help u at least make a decent question that is understandable for everybody. man , people look really dumd NOT USING dots and other marks.

to be a fair man, this is what i think ure answer could be after reading it 6 times : nfts partitions can be made easily with a program called norton partition magic, just create 1 from 10gb , should be enough

you will be able to burn quite a lot of backups of PS2 games with a FAT32 HD.

you won't be able to burn some games though as they will be bigger than 4GB and FAT32 doesn't support single files over 4GB.

Just use DVD Decrypter. For games over 4gb, dvd decryper will split up the .iso file into .I00 and .I01 files. Just burn the .mds file and it will link the .I00 and .I01 files together for a successful burn.
