Just thought I would be the first to post in this new thread.
Just wondered what software everybody uses to backup their PS2 games ??
I personally use DVD Decrypter in ISO Read/Write mode.

Hi there,
Well, I've got a problem in that area. I use Alchol 120% which works fine with DVD's under 4 gigabyte.. because then I'm enabled to create an image. However I use the fat32? system for my HD and it won't support files over 4 gig.
Metal Gear Solid 2 for instance is over 4 gig.. I'd really like to back it up but I can't... copying it on the fly won't work.. because it won't read the sub-channels? or something like that. Also for Dvd's the option to burn PS2 games is disabled in Alcohol.. so I would be very interested to know which programs you guys used to burn games over 4 gig. like metal gear solid 2 or final fantasy X
(if I burn final fantasy X on the fly.. it will load but the game crashes on certain points because it misses some burned information using the method above)
Please help me out ^_^

I personally use Nero to burn all my games, the only game that was big was "MANHUNT" that game was like 4.37 gigs and burnd perfect for me.
Ive tried decrypter once and was that program was good successful burn.

Marco1982, not sure about that problem mate, I used to use Record Now Max which was 95% ok but since I have switched to DVD Decrypter I haven't had any trouble.
Hope somebody can help you out with that.

hey marco, use DVD Decrypter. For games over 4gig, it will create 2 images and a .mds file. Burn the .mds file and it will link the 2 images together.

I use swap magic 3.0 because i think is easiest and cheapest way to avoid soldering. It also keeps your warranty intact.

Not sure about all the other stuff but I don't need anything else, just put in the disc and away you go.

Hello People! I had no trouble copying PS2 games before. I have a DVD writer and i use DVD+R. Lately i tried copying ps2 games but my ps2 wont read them. I successfully copy them using my computer but my ps2 wont read it. Is this because new games have like a blocker in them or what? I hope you guys can help me. Thanks!

First of all: Yes I am a newbie.... So, with that out in the open, let me ask my lame question. I've been reading all this about backing up PS2 games and I wonder: Can I just take my original PS2 game and make a direct copy of it (DVD to DVD-R / CD to CD-R of course)? What about patches? Will it work with Swap Magic 3.0?
Thanx who ever replies

I use a variety of software to back up my games:
DiscJuggler
RecordNow Max
Nero
DVD Decrypter
Alcohol 120
All depends on the game.

Totally agree mate, I have used a few different bits of software and I have found DVD Decrypter the most reliable and it's free, can't moan at that.

There is a problem w/ going online Socom II , you need to use the original (apparently).
To add to what is used for doing a back up of PS2 games ... another DVD Decrypter fan !! (ISO Read > ISO Write).
Has everyone d/l the latest DVD Decrypter 3.2.2.0 ?
