The game I am trying to patch is Harry Potter 's philosopher's stone. Be patient with this post I am new at this thanks

(1) First of all you need a Mod Chip installed in order to play backups. Or you could try a boot disk, the images of these are found below in the last link.
(2) Use CloneCD for making 1:1 copies. Check to see if your burner is fully supported i.e. RAW-DAO 96. And do a direct copy of the game that you mentioned, you don't have to patch it in order for it to work.

(3) CDrwin is used for creating 'BIN' file images which are needed by the patch program PPF-O-MATIC. This program allows you to patch your games with 'Trainers' e.g (Level selects, unlimited lives etc.) and NTSC2PAL selecters aswell. Also, you can patch your games to remove Anti-Mod Protection. This protection is added to a few PS1 titles, what happens is, is that the game will display a message saying that the software has been terminated due to the console being modified just shortly after boot-up.

There you will find the patch program and patches for PSX games.
Hope this helps.
