RecordNowMax or DVD Decrypter IMO. DD b/c it's free

I am making working backups of all of my sons PS2 retail CD games, but so far NONE of the backups of his retail PS2 DVD games will work. Tried DVD Decrypter, CloneCD, Alcohol 120%, and Nero so far. Have not tried record now max yet.
The files look fine on the hard drive, and can be mounted and examined no problem with an image drive, but after burning the disk will usually not even let Windows Explorer look at it???
One of the problem DVD retail game disks is LOTR The Two Towers DVD.

u do have a mod chip in the playstaion right??

[isepiq]

I have a chipmod from www.modchip.ca.

I just bought Budokai, Budokai 2, & Budokai 3 for my son. All three are DVD. I used Alcohol 120% to make a hard drive image of all of them, and burn the image back to disk. I got a working backup of B2 and B3, but the first Budokai refuses to make a working backup??? I dunno. Did them all the same. Same hardware, same disks, same proggie??? It's a mystery to me.

Regarding Recordnow Max. That is a really old version. The newest one is just called Recordnow and is v7.21. Maybe the old one does somethng better in regards to DVD backups??? Anyone used the new version successfully?

I guess the problem is with your blank DVD disks. The PS2 DVD reader does'nt accept most brands of DVD (it's a Sony device, and very cheap quality). Use quality brand blank DVDs!
If you cannot look at it with Windows Explorer, it's SURE you made a bad burning, a coaster.
Get a good blank DVD, get a good DVD-writer - the problem isn't in software, it's in hardware.
Even if the PS2 does read your cheap disks, you are killing his DVD reader with them - its a very delicate, very breakable (very cheap ) device !

Um. another point....U ain't copying on the fly are you?

This won't work. U have to make an image and then burn back. Also leave yr computer idle while its burning. No surfin the internet or anything. Besides that I'd say yr burner is knackered if it cant even read back what its burned! Even the cheapest media should be able to read back on the PC!!

What version PS2 is it yr son has?
