i spent so long following the guide to finally make a custom disk. I have and HDD and the HD Loader but when i try to install the disk it says "not a valid playstation 2 disk" please help me figure out how to play the custom disk on my playstaion. Some helpful info:
-disk is Sony DVD-R
-DVD written at x6 speed (slowest avaible for my external drive. the guide says x4 or lower?)
-I used Nero 7 to burn the ISO to DVD-R
-I used img burn to make the ISO because i didnt get the CD/DVD Generator to work on my comp
-I have an old fat PS2

i tried installing another game using HD loader then swap with my custom disk but i nearly broke my ps2 trying to swap it and it didnt work or i didnt know when to do it.
Please just help me figure this out. i know there is a way to burn a back-up disk onto the HDD

Having hdloader will now make your ps2 read burn games. the best way to put games on your hdd is do make an iso files with dvd decrypter and after you connect your hdd to your pc and install the iso on it with Winhiip.

okay thank you i will try that. Because before, i thought HD Loader acted as a modded ps2 and let me play back-ups but i guess not.

hdloader does act as a modchip and does play back ups, thats the entire reason of hdloader, to launch ps2 ISOs off of a hard drive
