Hello, i have made a backup of reservoir dogs i use Swap magic dvd version 3 and the game needed Zoneloader to boot, it works but makes a skipping sound and after a while it Crashes and makes a loud skipping noise.
I have tried re building the game and the same happens,
I am burning the games onto Tuff Disc DVD-R 16x which have worked fine for all of my other games, i have had not problem with them, this is the only game i have had trouble with so the discs cant be to blame.
Any Help would be Awsome
Cheers Guys
Dale

On my opinion I think it is your discs, just try better media.

But ive used these discs for ages and have done plenty of games which work perfect, its just this game.
Why would it just be this game.

Tuff Disc!! OMG! That is such a crap media. The coating is so thin, its unbelievable. Very cheaply made CDs & DVDs. In fact, I remember reading somewhere that they are reconstituted/refurbished discs made from other companies rejects. All they do is recoat them. The backing will start to peel at some point, it always does. They'll also wear your laser out in double-quick time, as it has to work harder to read the data on the thin coating.
Obviously you've been lucky up til now, and this game (Reservoir Dogs) is just the start of your problems.
Seriously, for the same cost (perhaps even cheaper) you can get Grade A quality discs that will give successful burns on every game & last a long time.
RITEK G05 8x DVD-R discs (pack of 50) cost me £13 (26p each), which is approx $21.45 ($0.42 each), with over 2000 games burnt at 100% success rate, and even the very 1st game I burnt still works some 4 or 5 years later.

Yeah, but I get my DVD cases from the same place for nothing. So it most likely works out as cheap, if not cheaper for me.

That'd be good enough reason for most people!
You got lucky with a few games, but we'll see how long they last.
Learn to listen to people who have experience with this type of issue, rather than question that experience.
Once you've burnt over 2000 games with 100% success rate, then maybe you cn start to question other's advice!
