Is it a PSX or PS2 game? Is it CD-ROM based PS2 game? Swap Magic CD is notrious for not working properly. You can't load PSX games with Swap Magic.

If you have a DVD burner, you could always just create a backup using DVD Decrypter. Here's a guide: http://home.earthlink.net/~moderator/id3.html The disc could be scratched or dirty. What I mean by CD-ROM format, is that the game itself is a CD-ROM not a DVD-ROM. This has nothing to do with the game being a backup or original. Check on the back of the box of the game, it'll say in small print "CD-ROM" or "DVD-ROM."
