Unfortunately Playstation CDs are heavily copy protected. Nevertheless it's possible to create backups of most Playstation games.

This is what you need:

• A MOD chip, which must be soldered into the Playstation.


• A CD recorder capable of burning CDs using the "disc at once" method.


• About 700MB of free drive space to store a CD image file.

Proceed as follows:

• Start Nero


• Insert the Playstation CD in your recorder


• Choose the menu command File->CD Copy


• Select the page Copy Options and uncheck the on the fly option. Select your CD recorder as input device and choose (for safety considerations) 1x as read speed.


• Open the page Read Options and select (if these options are available for your recorder): "Read media catalog number and ISRC", "Continue copying", "Data Mode 1": "Force Raw reading" "Write uncorrected", "Data Mode 2": "Force Raw reading" "Write uncorrected", "Read audio with subchannel", "Ignore read errors" and uncheck "Jitter correction".


• Open the Image page and choose a harddisk drive with at least 700MB of free disk space.


• Select the page Burn and choose (for safety considerations) 1x as write speed.


• Click the Burn button
