hi, I need help working the DVDFab.. I want to back up my ps2 games and it says the dvd folder does not exist. the video_ts.ifo does not exist. I cant find the "options" area to look for an iso... make sense? Thank you very very much (im getting highly frustrated)

Are you using DVD Decrypter to rip them? This is what I use, just select the iso selection and away you go!

Ok, firstly this should be in the PS2 section...

Secondly, to play your backed up games you will need some form of modification to your ps2 console, like a modchip or combination of swap magic boot discs and a case mod or switches inserted in the ps2. If you don't have any of them, don't bother trying to backup your games as they won't play...
you can read more about this stuff and find out how to backup your games in the ps2 dvd backup forum. But basically all you need is DVD Decrypter for most games. Check my links in my sig for a lot more info on backing up ps2 games, and if you need more help post in that forum and I'll try and help... but I highly recommend that you read a lot about this subject before backing up games as it could save you wasted discs and problems through using low quality discs etc.

good luck with it... asking a mod to move this to ps2 dvd backup forum.
