Hi, I have done alot of researching lately and it?s driving me mad, seriously. I?ve read a lot of stuff here and it didn?t seem to help.
I?ve just made a backup of Hitman Blood Money for the ps2, and im having alot of troubles trying to get it to work on my modded ps2. My ps2 is a bulky one and has the chip neo 2.2 and I use DVD region x to boot up back-ups. I have used back-ups before on my ps2 which my old friend did for me and they worked great but now i am not in contact with him. Anyway I thought it would be great to do it myself. My DVD burner is LITEON SHM-165P6S.
I made my game into an .iso using DVD Decrypter and tried burning the .iso with Nero, DVD Decrypter and Alcohol 120% and had no joy with none of them, the disks burnt alright but just don?t work in the ps2.
I have also tried using different brands of media, Vertibim, Imation and Ritek and also tried burning them at different speeds from x1 to x4. Also I know there is nothing wrong with the ps2 because I have tested an old back-up I had and it worked fine.
Please guys, all you ps2 lovers, like me, HELP ME.
Any ideas or what I need to do would be appreciated lots, thanks in advance for any info.

ace1uk, i know what your saying mate, i didnt wait long enough for a reply, sorry.
I have read the rules and read other peeps posts, who are in the same boat as me.
I have tryed lots of ways and just recently tryed dvd + disks, and still no joy, please reply or anyone else who could have an answer for me, when you can, cheers.
I'm thinking it might be a TOC issue but, I don't know if booting up backups with dvd region X has the same procedures as the GS2 with neo2.2 (double swap for DVDR games)
what i meant was what exactly is the problem, does it show a back screen after the playstaion 2 logo etc
and what is the media id of the disc he is using
hi there, after i load dvd region x and put the backup in and press start the screen just goes black and what do you mean by media id, please reply, thanks.
pleas man all this is in the stickies please go there first
also about the media id its a sort of code that the manufacturer puts on the disk to find out wot it is pop the disk in the tray load dvd decryptor and it should be on the right hand side named as manufacturers id
