Pls someone shed some light on this topic.

I have a PS2 pal v 3 with messiah 2.

I been trying to back up games in the last two days, but with mixed results, most being bad. :confused:

I've been using RecordNowMax and Nero 6 on my Pioneer A06, media Ritek G04, two types, the printable white top and Traxdata 4xspeed.

Okay most tutorials say burn image at min speed. So that's what I've been doing, but only managed 2 from 7 games to work flawlessly. The others don't work to well at all in my machine, you know they just spin and come with a disc error, have to load about 5 to 6 times, if I'm lucky.
Yesterday I burnt a game at speed 2x and it work okay, there was a couple of stutters in the game, but it loaded in the PS2, first time.

Okay the obvious is that my laser is bad, but I can play others copies that I have got from other people, no problem, they play like original's. The media, well I thought Ritek is suppose to be the best for PS2 backups, plus as I send I have managed two to work very well.

So it must be my methods, either program or burning speed. Should I be using another program or burn even at 4x speed

Pls someone out there with more knowledge on this subject HELLLLLLPPPPP!!!!! :confused:

Cheers in advance

Cheers for response

Okay, will try to clean it, although I dont think that is the problem, as other discs are working fine. I'll give it a try and post back here.

By the way, do you clean it with the standard CD cleaner, the fluid and brush system that you use on most stereo's?? Or is there another method, I've never cleaned a DVD lens.


Cheers Paul :)

I just use the disc with the brush heads underneath, works a charm :)

Just trying to count out all other things before putting it down to an old laser.

Yahoo!!!
I burned 3 games at 4x speed using RecordNow Max v4.50, on my Ritek G04 printables. Its all good, they worked liked a charm, seem's I need to burn at max speed on those disks, but I will still read to HD at min speed, or is that pointless?

Do most people get best results at min speed, or do results vary?
I will continue to test a few more at 4x speed, hopefully I will have no more problems. Yeah, and I will give the laser a clean as well!

Cheers for all help
