My son lives with his mother, there he has a PS2, at my house he has a PS2, I backup the games so that he can play them on his mums modded machine. Problem is AR Max will not recognise them. Does anyone know of a way round this?

1. What media brand are you using (ex. maxell, sony etc.)?

2. What format media are you using (ex. DVD+R, DVD-RW, etc.)?

3. What program are you using to backup the games?

4. What speed are you burning the ISO at?

5. Any other useful info will be appreciated.

Cheers,

Thanks for your reply. I have been DVD Decrypter and then swap magic. The back-ups/copies play fine, the problem is my son likes to cheat using the Action Replay Max, the AR Max does not recognise a copied game, yet it plays without problems on the modded Ps2

All I can tell you is this:

I have no problem using the Action Replay Max. Just use it the same way you would if your PlayStation 2 wasn't modded.

My Action Replay Max is even a backup and it still works 100%. Just load the Action Replay Max and when it asks you for the game then take out the Action Replay Max disc and load your backup disc.

If this doesn't help, then send more relevant information to the thread. I hope it does help however and that you can play your games OK.

Cheers,
DG

I just treat copied games the same way as the originals, I shall keep trying and let you know the results.

You can't actually take the disc out cause it's spinning. And I suggest not taking it out whilst it's spinning. There is a way but you need a Dongle.
