PS2 backup NOT booting

[fattboy]

Please Help me.

1st off: Of course im a N00b or I wouldnt be asking some of these questions.

I just got a "no solder modchip w/ the swap magic 2 disk. I burned the images to a cdr, and do as Im instructed to swap out the magic cd w/ the backed up image... and I get NO boot.

All I get is a "insert disk" prompt. When I put in the backed up disk, and hit start. I get a Pinkish border outline, and thats it.

Can "ANYONE" tell me IF this is a Installation problem on my part or IF I didnt burn the images with the proper software?

Could someone Help me out or direct me to the thread thats given this information out a thousand times.

**Im going Crazy... cant get this to work!**

Describe your backup process and your boot process.

What I have is a Playstation 2 SCPH-35001 model w/ a NO solder modchip w/ magic swap 2 disk.

I burn the image using DVDrom= Pioneer A03 w/ PrimoDVD software.

I try to burn the image to a CDR w/ my modchip setup. ... And whola!! ... Nothing

**Do I need to actually back them up on DVD-r's

Forgive my ignorance... -> Im a N00|3 <-

Thx for the help though.

P.S. Should I burn the Image a slower speed.
Ive used Nero, and Discjuggler to NO avail.

Umm... oh hell yes you have to burn to DVD's. :)

Unless the games are on CD.

I will buy some dvd-r's and see IF that will fix my problem.

More than likely it will.

No. It actually had files on the disk. The size of the image is only: 814,874KB in size.

big enough size to fit onto a CD-r.

Thanx for all the good info. though
