Burning ps2 Games / Chip Installation Question thanks

[mafia matt]

WASA I have a few questions so bear with me.

- once I download the backup in .iso , how / what softwear do I need to put it on disc ?
- I am getting a chip from Xmodd.com , are they reliable or should I get my Magic 3.1 from someone else ?
- I notice a LOT OF PROBLEMS On theese boards , do modchips **** up all the time ? I don't wanna blow a ps2 !
- Is there anyone who will Install an Apple Chip ( Chip + Installation ) for around 90-100 or less ?

thanks guys ps2newz RULES

to burn ISOs, use Nero Burning Rom (www.ahead.de)

i dont know that side, www.socalmods.com is reliable, u can get a messiah2 pro installed and return shipping with chip for like 110 bucks, or magic 3.1 for 90. he has pretty good prices, and hes trustworth in my eyes, check the sites forum for user feedback to ease ur mind on wether he is reliable or not.

modchips dont **** anything up really unless u get a ****ed up install or a ****ed up chip (i.e clone)

hope this was helpful

omFg this irc shit is sooo confusing it takes about FOREVER to get queued here are some questions.

how big are ps2 gmaes ? I was looking on IRCSpy and saw a lot of games about 3-500 megs , I thought theese games were like GIGS ?

Once I download one of these 500 meg files wtf do I have to do ? And why does IRC suck so much ass ? thanks

All the CD games are under 650MB. The DVD-RIPS are around 700MB to fit onto an 80Min CD. The DVD-R releases are anywhere from 1GB to 4.3GB (the limit for a DVD5 disc)

Wow Matt... you have a lot of very basic questions..

First of all games vary. Most new games if not all are DVD based. This puts them anywhere from 900mb to 4.3gb. You need to get Winrar and Smartpar for starters. I recommend RecordnowMax and Alcohol 120%. These two apps will do everything you need easily. First study how to extract the ISO's and GI's before even worrying about burning. Of course, you will need a DVD burner before even bothering with DVD's. I recommend staying away from DVD rips. IMHO they suck!

Get FSRaid to repair files with PAR's, you can get it at Fluid Studios. It's much better than Smartpar, it has a great rename option. Check it out.

what about putting games on CD-R ?
what sort of download would I need then ?

DAMN THIS SHIT IS CONFUSING !
