Ok, i have a two part question: the first one involves hdadvance. I have a computer that i use in my home theater setup (for tivo, movies, etc), with a huge HD in it for just that reason. Rather than hooking up a HD independently to the ps2 for backups, is there any way i can simply have the games load off of the computer's harddrive? I'm not sure if there's some sort of IDE sharing capabilities or anything like that, but just maybe there is :)
Perhaps a more simple way would be using the usbextreme software...then i would simply have to figure out a way to make it so the harddrive can be accessed via the usb connection as if it were an external hard drive, and just run a usb cable between the two computers (which would be even MORE useful as i dont have a network adapter for my ps2 yet).

The 2nd part of my question, is does anyone have a step by step way to backup midnight club 3? I've tried alcohol, nero, dvd decrypter, everything. They always get tons of read errors...i chose to skip those with dvd decrypter, and i'm at 57% right now with 43 errors (47 minutes into the rip lol). I've searched all sorts of guides and tried several, and the only part of any of the guides i couldnt do were the parts involving cd/dvd generator (i couldnt get 1.2 or 1.5 to install...i double click and there's always some error about not being able to find setup.exe and a windows 16-bit application).
