Good day
Please help me (Noobie) I have a PS2 slim just loaded McBoot on the MC.Now how do I backup games ,whats the best copier that I can use and in what format should games be saved on these dvd copies or any other relevant info needed in order to do these backups,
How do I also play my backups from an external hard drive via the usb , relevant info needed as above.
Sorry to but in here but after reading many post i came to the conclusion that playing via a USB HDD would not be worth it as the ps2 USB port are USB1 and the games would lag, skip and possibly play slow and choppy.
This is why i want to get a FAT ps2 as you can use a IDE hard drive and this seems to be the be the best route to play from a HDD.
I also have a slim ps2 and i am using the freemcboot method to load my backups without any problems so as SMOKYRAIN says, just take an image of the game with DVD decrypter, patch it with esr disk pathcher, burn the game and that's it.
Although i found that the media used to do this and the burn speed is vital to a successful backup.
let us know how you get on so othwers can learn from our mistakes!!!
