hey charlie

regarding this :
4. What's that about the "toc" and what do I have to do about it?
ANSWER: You have to buy an original DVD copy of Devil May Cry 2 or Dead On Arrival to use as the boot disk after GS2 and before your smaller TOC DVD-R. These two games won't load any DVD-R with a larger TOC or they may load and play until the LBA limit of the original DVD TOC is reached.

do you happen to know the TOC of the original Demo disc that came with the ps2? I'm currently playing FFX and is using that DEMO disc to swap.
I don't really like the game to end until the LBA limit of the DEMO DISC TOC. anyway how do you go about checking the TOC size mate? fo I need a dvd writer? or just a dvd reader will do?
ANSWER: A DVD reader is needed. Use the PROPERTIES function of Windows Explorer on the DVD in the drive. The Byte and GB value will be displayed. The Byte value matters when the DVD-R says 4.3GB as does the original!
