if i can remember correctly i dont think i had to patch this one, to tell you the truth using disc juggler ive never patched any games apart from 2 and they were italian job and l.m.a manager 2002 for the psx, and on the ps2 ive never patched any cd game even ea games and burnt them all with disc juggler 3.5 and all my games work 100%, hope this is of some help

Thanx M8ee..

U may have solved an unsettling middle

Boomshanka!

Yo ottoman did you get it to work?

Ive just had the same problem with resident evil 1, and I found out that it was my black ps2 controller that was causing the problem, luckily I had a old psx grey pad lying around, I plugged it in and Bingo! it loaded. Dont know if this'll help you but it sure worked for me

Haven't tried yet, am out of cdr's, will pick sum up 2morrow and will also try ps1 controller trick.

Thanx 4 the valuble advice.

Will let u know how I get on

Regards

Okay, tried with ps1 controller and no joy ( kinda figured it wouldn't do any good as original isn't bothered by ps2 controller) so will back up using discjuggler 2morrow.

Thanx for replies

Okay. So used DiscJuggler and Alcohol120% to back it up and still no difference. The back-up works fine on ps1 and EpsxE but not on ps2.

Time to give up!!

tomb raider 3 ps1 backup plays fine here on my ps2

i had a imilar problem with either who wants to be millionaire or was it italian job both ps1

it ended up being bad read although clone said it read it correctly

6-7 attempts to get a good working image (read at 1x)
i proved my point i burned 5 disks from the good image everyone booted

cant give u more details as it was a very long time ago
try copying a diff origanal

sorry i never tested any of the non ps2 working backups on a ps1,

I backed up tomb raider III I think I used clone or alcohol can't remember which one but played in my Ps2 okay. (v7 ntsc)

Okay, this gettin annoyin now!

Right, It is reading the cdr okay cos the image runs fine in EpsxE and if I burn it I can boot the game up no problem in my chipped psx but ps2 has snags. It get past the ps1 boot screen no problem but then goes blank and just spins continuously.

It has to be an okay read and an okay burn otherwise the psx wouldn't touch it either.

I have tried cloneCD and alcohol, both didn't work.

I can only assume that the people that have backed it up were not using UK pal version original.

Regards and thanx for all the replies

well like i said before, mine is uk pal and works with no probs what so ever
