Burning too fast!

[Cyber Akuma]

I tried setting Nero to estimate the recommended maximum speed..... it recommended I use 198.1x speed....... then burned at 48x. The 48x backup performed even worse.

Use Verbatims, they have always been the best for burning PSX.
Update your CDRWin if it doesn't detect your burner.
I always burned PSX at 1x using my old TEAC SCSI burner, but I can let that do its own thing as it doesn't interrupt anything else I do on PC.

Actually, I had one slightly old verbatim disk left, I tried burning the same thing on it at 8x, it was just as bad as the Taiyo Yuden burn at 8x.

Have you tried Alcohol or Clone cd? I always got mixed results with Nero.

[Cyber Akuma]

Not CloneCD but I tried Alcohol 120%, same result.

Its really hard to say man. We're talking about two different consoles here. Naturally there going to load games a little differently. Its also not unusual for different consoles to react differently to the same media. As a example some consoles may love Sony CD-r's while others refuse to load them. No two lasers are adjusted exactly the same. If you've tried different media and software with the same result then maybe the PSX's laser is getting weak its hard to say. I really dont think its the burner or the 8x speed.

Sorry Cyber, I know this isnt much help .

You right. I have dc and psx and they love sony cdr but on old lasres in my consoles (they dead; first about year ago and second about half of year ago) they wont boot on psx/extremly hard to boot on dc. If your psx have probs with reading old scratched cdr's (best is to observe this on movies) then you must exchange laser Dont be sad its my fourth laser in psx and third in dc
