what burner are you using?
what software are you using?

have a look at www.psxcopyworld.co.uk for information/tutorials/software downloads.

Use CloneCD (if your burner is compatible www.elby.de to check) or CDRWIN.

Have a go, then if your still stuck post back again.

Good luck!

oh, and I take it that you do have some sort of mod-chip/bootdisc.......

Then its your CloneCD settings that are causing you the problems.

Use these settings

set write speed 1 or 2x
select RAW DAO

unselect simulate writing (if available)
select burn proof/just link (if available)
unselect perform laser power calibration(if available)

Hi there

Well i got a copy last night i set my read speed to 10x and I always write at 4x .....I was not at all happy with the result the music was all gittery and it didn`t run very smooth

Thanks for the settings will try that today and will get back to you and thanks for the web site got loads of info off it already.

Thanks

barny7 · #8 07-07-2002, 02:03

Do you ?? WOW

Just goes to show how much of a novice Iam

And do you still get faild disc`s ?

psx_paul · #9 07-07-2002, 04:02

no

barny7 · #10 07-07-2002, 08:51

Another question for you do you have any programs running in the back - ground when you are reading or writing.

if no ... should i just have exsplorer and systray running like when i defrag ??

thanks barny

hi m8ty
just a quick question?
Do you use you lite-on to read and write with?
If not what are you using as you reader,because most dvd readers that are in the latest systems do not read sub-channel which is needed to back-up psx and audio cds(cause they have sub-channel data(psx) and sub channel audio on the tracks that has to be read to copy properly.(the only one's i know of are toshiba and lite-on)
Also the lite-on does not write any slower that 8x no matter what speed you set it at (i know cos i got one) so try turning your psx upside down (the laser may be getting weak) when you try playing the game.
Hope some of this helps
Post back if i can help you anymore.

barny7 · #12 07-07-2002, 12:54

Yes i use my lite-on to read and to write ....you say my drive will only write at the lowest of 8x even if i tell it to write at 1x mmmmm

this is strange i`m not doubting you i`m a real novice.
Well i did what psx_paul told me to do to the letter and it worked a treat i got a perfect 1 to 1 copy

and i`m well chuffed .

Ok ourkid here is one for you backed up London racer 2 plays fine on the station down stairs but the one in my sons room well it just wont respond , loads as the one downstairs but will not respond to the controler i`ve swapped them around still nothing but the power rangers game works fine ???

got me going i can tell you

thanks
