Probs copying fifa2001 & ssx for ps2..advice needed

[zebedee]

To start with I have a ps2 with neo2 modchip and ar2. All other ea sports games copy and load no probs, but fifa 2001 doesn't. The disk speeds up as if it is going to load, but screen stays black. I have tried ea method etc....same with ssx. I have tried copying both games several times with cdrwin & clone cd, at 1x,2x,4x and 8x. I have tried different media still no change....any thoughts please ne1, much appreciated.
