Hi,
I am quit new to this compilation and recompilation stuff and read lots of guides but still unsure of what to do next#?
so please any help is appreciated!

The game I am trying to back up is Xenosaga I on PS2 and is size 7.88 GB as ISO format. I also have DVDDecrptor, Nero burner, SWap Magic 3.6, and DVdshrink 3.2 (that doesn't work). Using DVD Decrytpor ripped the [7.88 GB] ISO and got the files DVDIMAGE.I00 size [5.3GB], DVDIMAGE.I01 [2.5 GB] and DVDIMAGE.MDS [9Kb]. Intially tried burning the MDS file using DVD+R 9 and DVD decrytpor but the game didn't work even after changing book type to DVD-ROM but couldn't change to DVD size 8.5 GB, don't know how to? Also when tying to burn them and splitt using DVD5-R i get the message " Failed to reserve Track; Invalid Field in CDB"
Now i am not sure what to do next as have tried burning the entire 7.88 GB ISo file into aDVD 9 +R but that didn't work. Also tried burning the compiled 5.3 GB into DVD-9 that didn't work. Then tried to burn the 5.3 GB in a DVD-5 R using DVDDecryptor but got the message that overburn can damge the Dvd writer and may result in unstable playing!

I have already used up my money in buying the two DVD+R9 and all i have is DVD-R5. Can someone tell me what should i do with these files (DVDIMAGE.I00), (DVDIMAGE.I01), (DVDIMAGE.MDS) , are there setting in DVDDecryptor to change into DVD+9 (8.5GB), are there anyways to back it up into 3 * DVD5+R? if there is can u tell me the steps exactly? cause all the guides are diffent and confusing.Also
what programs should be used?

Thanks for your time and help.

I think swap magic doesn't support playing DVD9 games. You'll have to rip the game and downsample it to DVD5 size before you reburn on your DVD5 blank. Search for tutorials on how to do that, if there isn't one on this site then you should find one on the net.
