Orion H asked:


I recently backed up a CD-R copy of “Gradius V” for the PS2, from my friend who has the original. My PS2 is modified, and from previous testings, it is supposedly able to read any original PS1/PS2 games, PS1 CD-R backups, PS2 CD-R backups, and PS2 DVD-R backups.

However, my PS2 is unable to read this particular CD-R game. Here is what I did to back it up from my friend’s original copy:

I used Ahead Nero (7th Ultra Edition), stuffed the original copy into my CD writer, selected “CD-ROM (ISO),” dragged all files from the original to this new .iso image file, switched the main recorder to “Image Recorder,” and started the process.

The .iso file is made. Afterwards, I used Alcohol 120%, chose “Image Burning Wizard,” browsed for the .iso file, clicked “Next >,” chose the Datatype as “Play Station 2,” took out the original and put in a blank CD-R disc into my CD writer, put writing speed at 16X, and started the burning process.

Any solutions for this? Many thanks for reading.
