ISO for my PSOne Silent Hill game. (i dont have clone cd) and i dont know how to back up psone games. can some one help me out. the download gave me 7 parts (seperate downloads) they're all .rar files. can someone show me how to burn all this to cd. i have DVD Decrypter. or can someone just show me how to make the PSX ISOs with these files to burn with DVD Decrypter. any help is appreciated.

ok then.

well basically the 7 RAR files are all parts of the archive, so they should be together. open the main file using WinRAR and extract it. it should be some sort of image (ISO, etc) then just burn it onto a CD using DVD Decrypter

okay, but like remember there are 7 different files right, when i extract them all will they automatically form together to make the ISO? then i just normally write the iso to cd and it should work right away as a back up. right? thanks, sorry for all the questions, im new to this. thanks.

no prob.

yeah the thing is ppl split files like that to make them easier to download, one at a time. and yeah it should extract into an ISO or MDF or some sort of image file.

and you wont need to extract them all (i dont think). but try it anyway and see what happens.

could always just download the trial ver of CloneCD or Alcohol 120%

but if you unrar the 1st rar file or whatever file just says .RAR at the end of it then it should automatically unrar the others...

oh one more thing, does any one know how to write the psx image to a DVD? if so do you need a mod or swap magic to boot, thanks.

You cant write psx/psone games to dvd. They are all cd based games.
And learn to use the EDIT button in future please.

welll it sounds possible, but i doubt it, coz the ps1 and ps2 games are all different files and whatnot, it might work for PS2 CD games, which is possible, but i still doubt the ps1 game thing.

ace are you sure that its not possible?

You can put more than one PS2 game onto DVD. Since PS2 games do come on DVD, but psx games have NEVER come on DVD.
When you boot a psx game, it's only the cd reading lens that is active, NOT the dvd one, because of this fact.

im 99.9% sure no psx game uses half or less space on the CD, so my opinion is, its not possible
