you can only get ritek online. if you must buy it at a local store, go with verbatim data life PLUS.

i doubt that +r would work in your v1 best stick with -r discs, what happened when you tried to boot your backup,what boot method are you using,what game is it you are trying to backup

Sadly...no I still cannot find a media that will work on my PS2. Only CDRs so far have worked. I havea question though. If I havea DVDr movie work on the PS2 will that type of DVDr work for a backup?

Yes, it should. i think your problem is using gameshark to boot. What exact steps are you using to try to boot dvd backups?

Hi,
I am just loading up the Gameshark and once it gets to the main menu I do the slide card and swap. Then when I put it in and lock it back then I start game witout codes. Then it just freezes and the dvd rom drive makes clicking noises. I used this method for the CDRs to boot.
