well since u got alcohol pop in your original disc, open Alcohol 120% and select "Image Making Wizard" on the left. this will make an image (or ISO) of your game.

since it's a "wizard" it should be self explanitory. Select where you want to put the Image file, and just follow the steps basically. You may want to make your read speeds at 4x but try the default settings (which should be set to 'maximum' anyway. i dont usually have problems doing it that way) Also set your "Datatype" to Playstation 2 at the bottom left on the Wizard window

when you got your image pop in a blank DVD (make sure you're using good discs. and having DVD-R would be better) Then select "Image Burning Wizard" on the left inside alcohol, locate your image file and follow the wizard steps again. You may also want to set the write speeds at 4X but you can just leave it at 'maximum' speeds if you want to.

I dont know about the roms part sorry, I dont need to use a PS2 for that. I use my PS2 games to play PS2 games. i got a proper SNES or use this very computer to play SNES games.
