The Best PS2 DVD back-up soft + method

[kenbitt]

Hello Boys and Girls,
I have a PS2 and a LARGE collection of original DVD and CD based games and just this week i`v purchased a Pioneer A-04 and a Pioneer 106-s.The point of buying this new kit was mainly to back-up my ever increasing collection of PS2 games and for general back-up use for my PC.The software i got with my writer is called VOB.I have tried this for backing up files,movies etc off my HDD but not for PS2 games as my PS2 is away getting the latest MESSIAH installed so when it returns i will be starting to back-up all ma games and test them on my MEssiah`d PS2 . What i would really appreciate is someone here who is vastly experienced in this field to point me in the right direction of what software to use,settings etc.
God bless you ALL
Ken

First try system restore, this should put your system back to before you install the software, if this dose not work try going into device manager and delete the IDE ports. when you restart you should find that XP finds the ports and puts them back, but try the system restore first.

Cheers guys,
I have tried the system restore but it did not work still no drives.If i unplug ALL my roms and writers and only put my master HDD on the Primary IDE port everything works OK but if i reboot with my drives connected to secondary IDE port XP does not pick anything up including the HDD that it does pick up when it is ALL on its own very strange i think.I think my only hope is to format my HDD anybody got any other ideas ??
Cheers KEN

Ok Kenbitt, try this:
START Button
Controle Panel
System now click on System Properties click on Hardware tab then
Device Manager
In Device Manager click on IDE ATA/ATAPI controlers
You should now see your Primery IDE Chanel and Secondary IDE Chanel, this is where your problems rise, try right clicking and go through the differant options, try scanning for changes if that don't work, try updating including the web, If all that fails try the properties and see if you can role back the driver, then if that fails try uninstalling first the secondary then the primery, if XP keeps puting back the same drivers or will not let you see your drives then try booting with the XP Disk and do a repair, failing that...
GET A F*C*ING BIG HAMMER AND THEN............
