I've never used 16X DVD's before, but I've heard they are troublesome. You could try getting DVD-R 8X burn at 4. I use Verbatims myself and had no probs.


Make sure your using the DVD of swap magic for DVD games and the CD for CD's :)

You put the swap magic in, let it load, slide tray out using slide tool, put ps2 back up game in, slowly close tray, put slide tool in under tray and move it all the way right, past the little hook and then lock the tray by moving tool all the way left. Then press X.


What game are you trying to burn? Your doing the swap method correct yeh?
