primodvd file lost

[ron173]

When I compile a global image file with primodvd it reads ok, or seems to, but when I check the file to burn afterwards, its not there, but was during the writing phase??

Any ideas?

Well I would like you to answer my questions directly - you missed some answers out and you got an answer wrong. You said you read FFX on a Ricoh 9210A. That's a CD-RW not a DVD-R burner. So what's going on? Do you not have a DVD-R burner and if no DVD-R burner what are you putting into the Ricoh? From what you've said you're down 3 x 4 GB. So something doesn't stack up.

I'll set it out again below including in italics what you said.

1 PC operating System
Windows 98 SE

2 Whether the target drive is of type FAT, FAT32 or NTFS


3 Size of DVD game you are copying
Final Fantasy 10 - so we'll take that as around 4GB

4 Px Engine version


5 Whether you follow the instructions as in www.psxcopyworld.co.uk


6 Confirm that the file is not there in Windows explorer

Hidden files can be displayed through the Options for Windows Explorer. They can be set to non-hidden. But you need to be sure of their status. That means was there a "completed successfully" message from PrimoDVD?

Please answer every question this time.
