ok i got swap magic today and finally manages to get it workin and stuff
But (i suppose ill number the problems to make things easier to reply to)
Problem 1. right this was on Ghost recon Advanced warfighter. the audio is really jerky and the levels take AGES to load. But the levels run perfectly (except for some audio, like transmissions and stuff)
Problem 2. i tried to burn Battlefront 2 the star wars one right and it plain just doesnt work. i do the whole swap magic thing but when i press X straight away it says its not a valid ps2 disc. i think it might be that the iso was 4.697Mb and the disc can only hold 4.7Mb. is that it?

Both discs were:
Read and wrote with dyd Decyrpter.
Swap magic and slide card.
Memorex DVD+R
Btw i did burn Gta Lirirty City the same way and that worked perfectly so maybe there is a sneaky nack to my problems (well hopefully)id be grateful for any advice. thanks in advance

memorex is probably the worst media you can use... also burn at a slower speed... burn at 4x

DVD+R is okay but best results is DVD-R

here is a list of good media

Taiyo Yuden DVD-R
Verbatium DVD-R
Sony DVD-R

It your crappy media memorex, it sux try using taiyo yuden, verbatim or sony DVD-R and 8x burn at 4x which or choice or software. As for battlefront you gonna have to rebuild it so check out the tutorial on that its one of the stickies.

more back up problems related to media - when will people learn that they need to spend an extra few $$ on good media and thus avoid the headaches associated with cheap media.

Yep first off get better media.. then ghost recon 3 should work ok.. but with battlefront 2 it needs to be rebuilt and have a few things done to it so that it'll work.. do a search for battlefront 2 and you will find what you need to do.
