ok i use Ultra ISO to rip mt ISOs and i have been surprised that it's not the best one i can use ( does not capture PS2 DVDs fully )

and i got corrupted files like hell on the same Drive that i have my PS2 ISOs ( ~80GB ) and my imergency files ....

making such a big collection took 2-3 years some of the DVDs are lost by now or @ a friend's house ]

the games that i remember :
Metal Slug 6 -DVD is here - state is good - made with UI
Metal Slug 5 -DVD is here -state is good - made with UI
GTA SA - DVD is here - state is average - made with UI

question :

1- Nero is ok right ???

2 how do i know that any ISOs of those is corrupted or not

( by sectors or UI )

3- does moving them from Drive to Drive or applying NTFS compression affect them ???

To see if an ISO is corrupted you need to check the CRC32. For Windows, there is an addon called Hashtab that adds a tab in the right click menu (right click>properties) and you can see a file's checksum. You need to find a database to compare to.

Moving from drive to drive should NOT do anything, unless a drive is dying. And NTFS compression takes a performance hit... while it wouldn't corrupt a file, I'd avoid using it if possible.

Nero is fine but I would recommend ImgBurn (http://www.imgburn.com/)

Imgburn is the only free program which has given consistantly good results, so stick with that one

Nero is fine if you don't mind its massive size. I recommend Alcohol 120%. For some reason ImgBurn GUI does not agree with me at all. You can download Alcohol 52% from the official website if you can't get a free copy of Alcohol 120% elsewhere. The 52% version does not have the burn function though.

Go to http://redump.org/ to see their PS2 game hash list. Make sure yours match theirs. The list is quite large, although it is not complete.

No and no. Personally I don't use NTFS compression as I think it make the file access slow. Just my thought.

Keep in mind that Chinese software is as good as their hardware. Avoid Chinese stuff next time, abdo123.
