is there anything that you need to do before burning a downloaded PS2 ISO, because all I get is an error message saying that the dvd is not proper ps2 format

Along with swap magic you will need one more modification. Like an aftermarket flip top. Something to keep it from resetting when you swap discs.
DVD Decrypter is the best all around program for backing up games.
And no, backing up Swap Magic is a worthless effort because what would you do with it? You would need a REAL version of Swap Magic to load the back up copy, like any other back up.

the slide card can be used instead of an aftermarket flip top, but the flip top is just easier.
Check out what i mean here if you have not seen them.

It replaces your original top. That way you use the draw to put in Swap Magic, then just use the flip top to swap discs. Simple.

But using swap magic and a slidecard, your back ups should still work if you are doing it correctly. It may also be the media you use. You can get those "Invalid PS2 Disc" messages when you use cheap media. The PS2 seams to hate them.

Does the flip top work on the old style PS2 or just the slim???
And are they hard to install???

ok, what you have to do is search the web (google) and look for the DVD LOADER. This loader helps your swap magic (like a boost) to read some game that this version can't read.

IN CASE YOU'RE STILL LOOKING FOR THE SOFTWARE HERE IS A WEBSITE:

use the swap magic, then swap the disc with the dvd loader(using the tool to swap), then you'll have to insert the swap magic again. when you replace the dvd loader with the swap magic press eject on the ps2. after you ps2 reads the swap magic for the second time you're ps2 will ask you for the dvd copy.
