Are you trying to rip the games to your Hard Drive? Are they original games or copies?

Okay. Don't open DVD Decrypter until after windows has detected the games. After windows explorer opens up showing you the game files, then open DVD Decrypter and try ripping them. Does your DVD drive work okay with movies and other discs?

That's strange. Is your firmware up to date? Check here: http://forum.rpc1.org/dl_all.php

You have got dvd decrypter in iso read mode haven't you?

Also, I found that sometimes on winxp especially that the autorun/autoplay feature interferes sometimes... in a windows explorer window go into tools menu, folder options... then the "file types" tab. scroll down the list of file types until you get to iso file type.. and see what it says to open with, and change that if you want, I have mine set to dvd decrypter... it might help.

I haven't found a game that I can't read yet... I've found one that wouldn't decrypt, but had no scratches etc "godzilla save the earth"... but I don't go in for sports games much, apart from Formula 1 and a few other racing games and maybe football(soccer to you USA people)

Try another game with DVD Decrypter to see if that still works.. maybe you're having a software conflict or something.

Are you using NTFS or FAT32? Go to My computer, right click your C drive (or whatever drive contains your hard disk), and click properites. For file system check to see if it says NTFS or FAT32.

Don't know if it'll make much difference either way, but what I/O interface are you using with DVD Decrypter?

Have you installed any software lately that could be conflicting with DVD Decrypter?

Make sure your firmware is up to date using the link I posted. What kind of burner do you have?
