hi everyone. i have just bought god of war 2, and the disc is already starting to plit from the inside out. i want to back it up so i am able to play my backup copy, because that was a brand new AND expensive video game.

I have a Slimline PS2, and i downloaded swap magic v2.0 torrent iso file and burned it to a dvd, so i think im set on that. when i go to rip the actual god of war 2 video game onto my computer with DVD Decrypter, it works, but when i add it to DVD Shrink to burn it, it says "INVALID DVD STRUCTURE" and will not let me create the dvd game. I cant simply "COPY DVD" using Nero, because the image file is significantly larger than the blank DVD.

what should i do?? also, how do i use that boot disc i made?? IF i even burned it right... please help, thanks

Bad news,
I would take the game back for a replacement.
Swap magic will not work if downloaded.
DVD shrink is only for DVD movies.
God of war is also a special Game it needs to be rebuilt,patched,movies downsampled etc.
