last week and today I got to backup my first ps2 game(Madden 2003) and I must say it works like a charm. Thanks Bill your the best . I used the guide on Recordnow on this page . I used the version of Recordnow DX that came with my Sony Dru 500ax and Ritek media. The copy seems to work flawlessly. The laser does not seem to be taxing at all . It sounds just like a normal game would. I have heard some of you have had problems with the Recordnow DX that comes standard with the DRUax , but mine works perfectly , so I must assume that others have a different version than I have. Anyways just wanted to give Bill(freedomlives.com) from Illinois some props.
