SONY DRU-500A, Primo DVD Help required or any solution for PS2 Back up on this drive
 

Newbie here, just splashed out on Massiah chipped PS2 and Sony DRU 500A. I am yet to achieve successful PS2 back up and i would appreciate any help at all. I looked at sticky fingers guide but have two problems with those methods.

1) Primo DVD will not recognise sony writer on first screen even after patch installed. Anyone solved this ?

2) Only have Record Now DX and not Record Now Max, can this be used or not ?

I have also tried CD Clone and Latest Nero (via Copy DVD wizard) and produced coasters. Can I use either of these, if so what settings.

I also have DVD2One and DVD X Copy.

Oh and i'm using expensive Infinity with deep purple Ink Wright dye DVD - R.

HELP PLEASE!

RecordNow DX works fine. It's all I use. You can even just choose "make exact copy" and it will do everything. Works flawlessly for me.

check out some of the tutorials here or here

For the Primo error, d/l the latest PX Engine update from here

Thanks, have downloaded tutorials and will try nero method.

The PX engine update has changed nothing. Primo DVD v2.0 refuses to recognise my Sony DRU-500a and defaults to my Rioch CDRW drive. The opening screen drop down arrow offers no other drive options!
