hi, i have a very stupid question...sorry i couldn't find anything related to my problems...i need some help on backing up ps2 cd games. i have waisted 8 cds...i am not sure what i am doing wrong.

i am kind of an intermediate in backing up ps2 stuff...i just started 1 month ago. all my dvd backed up games work fine...i am using swap magic 3.6 set on a ps2 v7, dvd decrypter, and the burner and dvds that i am using have been working fine...sorry i can't remember their brand at this time.

but anyhow...i am trying to back up a cd ps2 game...so i am using the same tools that i mentioned above...but of course with blank cds.

here are my problems:

1. when i use decrypter...when it reaches 86% writting...it fails and gives me an error message. i tried 2 cds and the same message came up. sorry i can't remember the message now...

2. then i tried alcohol 120 and when the disc is placed into the ps2 the disc spins so fast and makes so much noise that i think it will explode into my ps2...nothing happens...keeps spinning...

3. i tried nero...and for some i don't know how to use iso on nero...i am confused here...

4. so, i decided to burn this cd based game onto a blank dvd...not sure if this is supposed to work or not...tried and nothing worked...is this possible? burn a cd based game onto a dvd? i tried and used the cd swap magic and the dvd one and nothing booted...

please can someone show me a link of step by step instrucitons and the tools used to back up CD ps2 games, please?

what am i doing wrong?

thank you in advance...
