According to www.modchip.com here is what i need to do to play DVD backups. I am using Swap Magic DVD 2.0

Swap Magic Instructions (For Booting PS2 DVDr's):

Boot up the Swap Magic 2 "DVD" disk.

Wait for the PS2 to boot up until "Insert Disc" message appears on the screen.

Now hold the "Eject" button until the power indicator turns from green to orange.

The CD tray will open, Change the Swap Magic 2 disk with your PS2 DVD game disk.

The CD tray will close within 3-5 seconds.

After the CD tray closes press "X" on your controller, your PS2 backup will now load.

I THOUGHT THAT YOU HAD TO COG (KNIFE) METHOD OR USE A FLIP TOP. WHICH IS THE CORRECT WAY?

the above boot method is for when you are using a no solder mod chip instead of the slide card or flip top

its an internal plug in chip that allows you to eject a disc in the ps2 without it knowing about it so you can swap disc's the only problem is that they have been known to blow internal fuses in the ps2.

I burned Castlevania and can't get it to boot. I used DVD Decrypter ISO Read/Write 1x using Ritek DVD-R. I just get pink screen. I have a V7 PS2. Don't know what the problem is.
