I am trying to patch my Burnout 3 game and I burnt my Disc ID Utility to a CDR disc and I put my Swap Magic 3.6 plus disc in and it loads, then I open my fliptop and insert the burned CDR and it says "Not a vail PS2 Disc" any idea, whats going on here?

Followed every direction to the T



1) Download Alcohol 120% burning software and install it on your PC
(You may have to re-boot to complete the installation).

NOTE: If you are burning the Disc ID Utility obtained from this Web
site, go directly to Step #3 below. If you are making a back-up
image of a PS2 CD-based game on your PC's HDD, then proceed
to Step #2.

2) Insert your original PS2 CD game disc in your PC's CD-ROM drive and
click on the icon for the Alcohol 120% executable and at this
screen click on the Image Making Wizard button. As shown HERE,
select your CD/DVD Device, ensure the CD Type is CD-XA, make
sure the Mode is listed Mode 2 (as shown), and click the Next
button.


Finally, at this prompt be sure you have enough FREE space on your
Hard Disk Drive for the image (at least 800MB free is recommended)
give your image a NAME, and press the Start button. Once the
imaging is completed, go directly to Step #4 below in order to burn
the PS2 CD image now located on your HDD to a blank CDR disc.


3) Using WinZip, un-pack the ZIP file you downloaded here for the Disc
ID Utility. You will end up with (2) files: a .BIN file, and a .CUE file.

4) Click on the icon for the Alcohol 120% executable and at this
screen click on the Image Burning Wizard button.


5) As shown HERE, click on BROWSE button to find the extracted .CUE
file and add it by selecting it and clicking the Open button. After
selecting it MAKE SURE that Mode 2 Form 1 is listed (as shown),
and click the Next button.

6) Ensure your settings match THESE (specifically the Write Method)
and click the Start button. A few minutes later, you should see THIS
prompt. Enjoy! ;)

This is were I found this information at, I burn the disc and it looks like everyting is going to work good. But then when I put the burned Disc ID Utility disc in, it says, Invalid PS2 Disc. I have tryed it 2 times now and still no luck.
