Question How to backup PSX FF8 AU/PAL for PS2?

Hi there,

I got a copy of Final Fantasy 8 which is scratched
(readable by CDBurners but does not run smoothly on PS2 as it used to be)

I tried to back it up with CloneCD4, Nero5.10.x.x, with patch (UK/PAL and Uni by Chen) and with out patch, and end up wasting 5 discs.

Those disc all had same problem, that is they never get thru to the "square soft" screen, the all black out after SCEE license screen.

Is there anyone know what I did wrong? or is it the patch not suitable for my FF8? or do I need Action Replay to load it?


by the way, my PS2 is chipped with NEO2.2

Please help out.

sorry guys, I didn't do enough research on CloneCD4.

I have succefully backed up my FF8, with PSX CD profile for CloneCD4, no patch required, and works much better (smoother) than my original FF8 CD

the profile setting file contain is as follow

[CloneCD ReadPrefs]
ReadSubData=1
RegenerateData=0
ReadSubAudio=1
AbortOnReadError=0
FastErrorSkip=0
ReadSpeedData=0
ReadSpeedAudio=0
IntelligentBadSectorScan=0
SectorSkip=100
NoErrorReport=0
FirstSessionOnly=0
AudioQuality=0
[CloneCD WritePrefs]
DontRepairSubChannelData=1
AlwaysCloseLastSession=1
AmplifyWeak=0
WriteSpeed=0




I used to have my ReadSpeedData, ReadSpeedAudio and AmplifyWeak on, however, with the setting above, it works fine
