    This is the 2nd time this has happened. I tried to make a backup of Midnight Club 3: DUB Edition, and now Burnout 3: Takedown. Same method for both backups: Rip using DVD Decrypter, burn using DVD Decrypter at 1x. I'm using a Pioneer DVR-109, Apple DVD-Rs. v7 PS2 with Matrix Infinity v1.5. I put the backup into the PS2, it acts like it is working, spins up, then stops, and goes to the browser.

    Any ideas why it's doing this?

    Oh, what's also wierd is that my backup of Hot Shots Golf Fore! works just fine.

    It could be your discs, ive never even heard of apple discs, try using a big name disc like ritek g04 or verbatim etc, and before you say but hot shots is on apple disc, that could be just lucky, I have games that work perfectly on Princo but I also have games that wont but with verbatim (which I use) I have 100% games work

    Not to mention 1x writting speed is too low. Todays disks usually burn better at high speed than at 1x/2x. Plus, the media... use a better one and you'll be fine.

    Apple, as in Apple iPod, Powerbook, G5, etc, etc. I would understand if it doesn't recognize the disc, but it goes back to the browser and shows that a PS2 disc is in the tray. It kinda acts like when there is an error is the SYSTEM.CNF file. It sees the file, but it can't completely execute it, because there is an error.
