Depends... is it a straight ISO or in lots of Rar's ? If lots of RAR's then you need to extract the ISO or what ever image file it is and then follow the .NFO they tell you what to burn with and what settings. I usually just use Alcohol 120% to burn with...

You also need a Chipped PS2 and to make it Legal own the Original game Razz

No i just unrared all the files. Got out an .ISO-file. Already burnt it on a DVD-R with Nero but it won't run on my PS2.

BTW do I really need a modchip to play that DVD?

No you don't. Not if it's a movie.

In my own experience not all dvd-r's will play on a PS2. I've copied loads for my brother, but only some seem to work while they all work here in all of my dvd players. Try a different brand of media.

verbatim should work on ps2, so it's probably a writing issue....what are you trying to burn? movie? ps2 game? if it's a game you'll definitely need a modchip. dvd-r Movies should work fine without a chip however. Note that a ps2 isn't able to view all dvd movies (the dvd playback driver has some issues).

Other than that, you either have a corrupt iso, a good iso but a bad way of burning, or a dvd writer uncapable of burning on the media you tried. (for ps-2 dvd burning you're best of burning dvds at 2x)

hm i just noticed your d/l in front of your topic...you mean dual layer dvds? I know champions of norrath and xenosage were dual layer dvds but haven't seen a working dual layer dvd-r boot up in a ps2 yet. Better to keep those expensive dual layered dvdrs untill someone can tell which brand/writing method to use for those

No No No, with D/L I meant downloaded NOT Dual Layer Movies.
BTW I'm trying to burn a Movie (Identitiy-PAL-ALDIrelease) to run on my PAL-PS2. So I don't know what's the problem with that F**king PS2.
