I have had my PS2 modded and I can't seem to play copied dual layered games. Not sure if my mod ship is "older" sytle. I have tried the button sequence at the start up screen but it just says to insert a PS2 formatted game. The disk works well in another console. Any ideas?

as long as your chip is DVD9 Ready there is a way
check the specs on your chip
If it is DVD9 Ready then get Toxic DL Patcher and you can patch the game so any chip that is DVD9 ready will play it

here is the write up on it
As many of you are probably aware, the PS2 has problems running DVD9 games backed up onto dual layer media due to to problems reading from the second layer. This is because the data format on burnt DL discs is different than on pressed discs (burnt = OTP, pressed = PTP). However, we have discovered a software hack which allows the PS2 to read even burnt OTP discs resulting in working dual layer backups! Our Toxic firmware for DMS4 chips already includes auto-patching functionality which applies our software hack on the fly when booting games on dual layer media. For those without a DMS4, we present the Toxic Dual Layer Image Patcher! The patcher works by applying our software hack to the game image (.iso, .gi etc) before burning. Once the hack has been applied by our patcher, burn the modified image to dual layer media and play! This method will enable anybody with a modchip capable of booting DVD9 media to backup and play DVD9 games such as Gran Turismo 4.
