Hi, I have got an ISO on my PC ;-) and have burnt it with Nero back onto DVD.

When I use swap magic, it doesn't load. Why is this?

You should try burning with diferent programs, wich version of Nero do you have? Burn at low speed, 4X maximum and use good media. To burn a .iso image you can use:

- Alcohol 120%
- DVD Decrypter
- CloneDVD 2

Try checking some tutorials, i'm sure they could help you.

Experience is a wonderful thing. It enables you to recognize a mistake when you make it again.

Thanks mate, i've checked some tutorials but they all vrtually say the same. I think I have Nero 6 or 7 (that rings a bell anyway)

Maybe it's the quality of the media I use, but to be honest, when I burn film dvds, they work perfectly.

Do you think i'm doing something wrong on Swap Magic?

When I first came to this forum, I was using Nero and when I learned about DVD Decrypter, I switched to that. I have never had a problem since. I burned my games at either 2.4 or 4 times speed. I also upgraded my media because I was using Staples DVDs because they were cheap. Now I use Sony and occaisionally I find Verbatim every now and then. Movies will burn fine no matter what brand of media you use. But a PS2 disc is pressed and not burned. Big Difference!

For more help, look at these threads. They should help provide an excellent solution to your problem!
