HOW TO COPY PSX GAMES (AnGeLk][LLa)|\|\|\|\|\|\|\|\|\|\|\|\|\|\|\|\|\|----------------------------------

There are two ways of copying games.

WAY 1. Turn them into a .bin/.cue or an .iso and then burn them to a CDWAY 2. Copy CD to CD

I recommend doing #2 because its easier and takes less time. If youplan to store the PSX game on your Hard Drive. Then do #1. I willexplain how to do both on different types of programs:

-----------WAY #1-----------I sudgest using CDRWIN for this way of copying a PSX game.

CDRWIN>>1. Open CDRWIN2. Select the following options- Check "Disc Image/Cuesheet"- Under "CD Reader" Choose the CD Reader to be used- Under "Image Filename" select the place to put the game. For example,

I did C:\PsxGamez\- Select the tracks under "Track Selection" (most games have only 1)

+++++Everything else that I havn't mentioned should be left DEFAULT++++

---------WAY #2---------Backup InstructionsIntroductionThe following CD-Writer software is capable of making a working backup of an original Playstation CD.PC Software:

CDRWINCD WizardDiscJugglerNero Burning RomWinOnCDMacintosh Software:

CD-Copy & ToastAmiga Software:

MakeCDInformation where to get this software can be found at CD Media World.

NOTE: Keep in mind that an ModChip or a Game-Enhancer is ALWAYS needed to be able to play these CD-R'sIn some cases it is better to use the CD-Writer as Source CD-Reader as it is usually better able to read unreadable sectors.

All backup instructions will first make an CD Image on the local harddisk and after that burn the CD. It is also possible to perform an On-the-Fly backup but this depends on the quality of the CD-Reader.

Always make sure that there is enough disk-space to store the CD-Image (some CD-images can be 700 Mb in size!).

the format of your writer is "raw block contents" or "cooked user data" make sure that the Data Format is set to Raw Block Contents.When the CD-Writer does not support this mode by default, it will take a fair amount of CPU power as MakeCD has to emulate this mode internally.
