Question

Greetings all. I have a playstation game that I want to burn(for backup reasons of course) but every time I try it says that the files are too big. Does anyone know of a way to copy these kind of files? Thanks.

You should use Nero Burning Rom, I use it and have never coastered, and all my games work. (My BACKUPS, I mean...)

Nero or CDR-Win should work. turn off all error correction, and do a raw data copy. Many Playstation CD's have files that incorectly report their size, and some even have intended bad or currupted data as part of the copy (I mean backup) protection. the raw data copy should ignore stuff like that.

(FYI, I've heard that Sony doesn't even like customers making backups of the games...)

Not that I burn games or anything... noooo not me... but www.gamecopyworld.com has lots of info for burning PC games, and they also have a playstation section as well. Even though now Sony has started to put mod chip detection on there so you gotta put in game shark codes to get around it with copied games, oh well. But I usually use either Nero or Discjuggler and they both work pretty well, get the newest Nero and crack it and it is really easy to use.
