I was just wondering if its possible to backup a PS2 CD game to a DVD and make it work??

See I have a V10 PS2 and swap magic 2.0, but the SMCD doesn't work (says "Please insert playsation 2 disc") only SMDVD.

Hmm

Here Is An IDEA:

You Could Try To Do Almost What Scarecrow Is Trying To Say And Basically Do This:

READ ALL DIRECTIONS BEFORE STARTING!!!

Put The Original Copy Of The Game Into Your CD/DVD Drive.
Use DVD Decrypter And Under Mode > ISO > Read
Then Select Where You Want To Place The File.
Now Click On The Button That Has A Picture Of A DVD To A HardDrive.
(This Should Take A Few Minutes)

When It Is Done Making A Copy, Open Up ISOBuster And Extract The File Into A Folder.
(This Could Take A While)
Now You Use CD/DVD Generator To Rebuild The Image.
Place All The Files Into The Correct Order.

Click On The Record Button. (Now Because Your Drive Isnt Compatable A Few Errors Should Appear, Click Ok To Both, And IGNORE THEM)

Now A New Window Will Appear And Select EXPORT Image, And Save It Directly To The C:/ Drive To Make It More Simple. (EX: C:\GameName.iml)
(This Will Take A Pretty Long Time)
It Now Should Create 3 Files (GameName.000 , GameName.001 And GameName.002)

Now Go To DOS Mode. (Start > Run, Then Type In Command And Press Enter)
When That Appears Type In CD C:\ And Press Enter.

Now Type In C:\copy /b GameName.000 + GameName.001 + GameName.002 XXGameName.iso
(Exactly As Shown)
It Will Show The Process In Steps:
GameName.000
GameName.001
GameName.002
(This Will Take A While)

The File Will Be Located On Your HD Where The GameName.000 And Other Files Are.

When That Is Done, Use DVD Decrypter. Go To Mode > ISO > Write.
Select HD To The DVD, And Burn.
(Should Take A Few Minutes)

It Should Be Done.

Notice How The GameName Will Be XXGameName, When You Go To Reburn, So You Won't Confuse It With The Original.

***ALSO, I Would Try Taking The Original ISO Burned From The CD, And Burn It Directly To DVD, Try It Out, And Let Me Know***

2nd Option

The Previous Post Is Not 100% Sure To Work. But Here Is An Option That Will Work.

Use Swap Magic DVD, Then Put DVDLoader In, Then Put The Backup CD Of The Game.

DVDLoader Is Like CDLoader But Is In DVD Mode, But U Can Boot A CD From It Also.

(I'll Get The Link To DVDLoader If U Cant Find It)

Gotta Run Now Hope Its Not Too Vague Cause Im In A Rush.
