In the case that your PS2 file doesn't open, it is highly likely that you do not have the correct software application installed on your PC to view or edit PS2 file extensions. If your PC opens the PS2 file, but it's the wrong application, you'll need to change your Windows registry file association settings. Rule 2: Please keep posts relevant to the PlayStation 2.

So, a week ago or so I lost my copy of Mega Man X8 (I know, it's not a very good game.) Wanting to replace it, I went to a torrent site and downloaded it for the PS2 (I assume that is legal. I have purchased the game. And it's in my possession in a sense; it's simply not accessible to me, wherever it may be.) I noted that it was odd that it was in BIN and CUE format. Well, when I went to burn it to a DVD, DVD Decrypter gave me the following warning: 'Your image does not appear to be of the correct format for burning to a DVD' Image format: Mode2/form1/2352 DVD format: Mode1/2048' So, I used ISO buster to extract the image file's contents and I tried to build an mswhatever file using CD/DVD Generator, but it too gave me problems, saying, 'Does not meet the minimum 60000 sector DVD requirement' or some such. So I created a dummy file 500mb in size and added that to the end of the image file contents and built the mswhatever file and then imported that into Apache2 and created an.iso file which I then burned to a Taiyou Yuuden (legitimate. I have already backed up 8 or more games with the slightest problem) at 4x. I then used swap magic 3.6 in an attempt to boot it up.
