Exclamation MvC2 HELPPPPPP Backup!!!!!

I am trying to play a backed up version of MvC2 from my roommate. After we burned it the first time (from a cdi file) it worked fine for a little while, but hours later it wouldn't start anymore. Normal DC games still work fine.

My Dreamcast is from Oct. 2000 so, I was trying to follow this guide:

"Rip the CD with DiscJuggler to a CDI file.

Go in to a DOS/Command Prompt and using CDIRip, rip the CDI file so that a .CUE and .BIN file are created.

You can delete the .CUE file. Download a free copy of ISOBuster from the net and extract the files to a directory from the .BIN file.

Using IPBIN4WIN, create an IP file which corresponds to the game. It normally needs to be pointing at the 1st_read.bin file, or perhaps a different file if it is a WinCE game. A WinCE game can be detecting by checking if it has a 'WinCE' directory on the CD. If so, make sure you take this in to account when creating the IP file.

Now you'll need a tool called 'mkisofs'. It is included in the selfboot toolkit. Create an ISO from the files you have extracted, and the IP.BIN in the root directory. Make sure you use an offset of 0,0 *NOT* 0,11700.

Then you'll need to use Xeal's amazing 'Bin2Boot' tool on the ISO, which creates a selfboot CDI which puts the game data BEFORE the audio boot data. A miracle. Now the game works. It's been tested on a real non-CDR boot DC (one of the first in the UK) and it works fine. "

I got up to making a bin file using cdirip...which I did do, but ISObuster has multiple errors when I try to open the image.

Any ideas?? Thanks all.
