to begin this is my equipment: PS2 v9, Swapmagic DVD v2, Nero 7 Ultra Edition, CD/DVD generator, DVD Decryptor and Roxio 6. Im having trouble burning those 3 games or actually ANY games. The reason i believe it is because of my computer. i personally know how to burn games, rebuild them and all of that. i been doing it for more than 2 years. I just got a new computer about a month ago and for some weird reason all of my backups i make in this computer come out weird. i make the image burn it and so on, but when i put it in my playstation all of the games(made in my new computer) have very long loading times. Its really pissing me off. I have tryed to burn it with nero, roxio, dvd decryptor, i rebuilt the games and still the same thing happens. For example i had made a Battlefield 2 back up in a different computer and it worked perfectly in my playstation, two weeks later i wanted to make a copy of my backup(because it was getting a little bit scratched but it worked good) so i try to make a copy of it in my new computer and it had horrible loading times. i also rebuilt it and still the same thing happened. The new computer i got is an emachines W3050.

Can any body give me ANY advice?

What kind of media are you using? The other problem could be that since you're using SM 2.0, you may want to try Zone Loader or DVD Loader.

1. Q. How do I burn PS2 games?
A. Use DVD Decrypter. Guide: http://www.angelfire.com/games6/easytutorial/dvddec/dvddec.html Burn at 4x on an 8x DVD-R.

2. Q. Does the type of media I use matter?
A. YES: http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/3/240341
If you're too lazy to read, use Taiyo Yuden, Verbatim, Ritek, Sony, TDK, Maxell, Sony or Phillips DVD-R's. Avoid Memorex, Staples, Imation, Dynex, Princo, Bulqpaq, etc.
CMC Magnetics is garbage. Need proof (Thanks to Alkohol):

12. Q. I have Swap Magic 2.0 and game X won't work, what do I do?
A. Check here to see if there's a fix: http://swapmagicfix.com

Q. Where can I find CD Loader, DVD Loader, Zone Loader, or Cogswap Loader?
A. http://swapmagicfix.com/

im using one of those medias without names, but it works i have made a couple of copies with the same media and it works just fine. like for example i made a copy of battlefield with the same media on a different computer and it worked. i think its something wrong with my DVD Burner, the bad thing is that i have no clue what to do Hardware wise or if i need to upgrade some firmware for my driver or something like that

Memorex is horrible. Most likely it's the media. Get some Taiyo Yuden, Verbatim, or Ritek. Don't blame the hardware before you get some decent media.
