Recently I've been having problems installing games via:

HDL_Dump (latest)
FAP_SRV
DIRECT FROM DVD

Everything works fine, no errors, but the game is not in the list. I've tried reloading HDL, using HDA. Even installing the game multiple times.
Yet when I check the TOC via HDL_Dump GUI, the game will appear.

The only way I can install games and have them appear, is to install the PS2 HDD in my PC and transfer the IMAGE via WinHiip or PS2 Handiness.

I have a seagate 120gb HDD with around 20 games, and this has never been a problem before. V5 PAL PS2.

I could have sworn I saw a topic on this before, yet my searching proved inadequate or useless.

Any help would be great!
