Hey im new to this, but i hope you can help. I recently purchased a Sony DRU-510A and am wanting to backup my PS2 games. My friend does this through Nero and he has a Pioneer A05 and he can do it perfectly. When i try and do it though on a 4x -R disc, it doesnt do anything and then says that there is a power collabiration error on the screen. What does this mean? I cant burn DVDs either. Hope ya can help.

It seems your problem is not restricted to copying PS2 games.
Please tell us more on the configuration of your PC.

For anyone who is interested: I have been doing some research. For most ps2 games, which are most DVD based nowadays, you WILL need a DVD burner to copy them. Also, I have tried most of the tricks to copy and play ps2 games, but in reality, none of them work. You WILL need a ps2 mod chip! I reccomend the DMS3 mod chip. It will allow you to play your ps2 back-up copies. Please respond if this message helps anyone.

ajmmck,

To answer your question that you posted: Power Calibration Error usually is just a media incompatability. Try some different media and see if your results are not better!
