you need a mod chip so the ps2 will read the cd's but they are illegal so...

mod chips, que es?

a hardware modification? How is it installed? dongle like? I've never had a problem defeating dongles.

Are u trying to backup PS1 games or PS2?

With PS1 games programs like CloneCD or Nero will backup the games fine...

With PS2 I dont think you can back games up unless you have a DVD writer... cuz all PS2 games are in DVD...

Both PS1 and PS2 will require a mod chip for bypass the security on the discs... There are tons for sale on the internet, so just search around and I am sure you will find lots...

However as stated above, all this is illegal...

Actually, as far as I know, the PS2 doesn't even have one DVD game as of yet. Developers are using CD's.

Mod chips came in 2 diferent forms for the playstation. 1 was a little card you could plug in the back of the playstation(not illegal) it alowed for cheats, playing all the movies on the disk without playing, etc. 2 is something they install on the circuit board(illegal).

I've found several sites selling them for the ps2, do they work?

the plugin for the ps1 is easier than the other one which requires you to take the psx apart. and I believe there is a bootcd for the ps2 so it doesn't require a mod chip. <shrugs>
