Chapter1.? How to copy an Original PS2 DVD Game.

?

Place a Playstation 2 game DVD (original or backup) on your DVD Writer and then open the IMGBURN program you?’ve installed before or any other DVD Burning Program like NERO.

Click on the MODE menu and select READ. Wait until all the info is collected from the DVD as its name, the size, and so on.

After the update a screen similar to the next one in shown: ?

??????????????

?

Now you need to choose where the ISO file will be saved.?

Press the folder icon on the DESTINATION section of the window and select the drive and folder you want to save it in. After selections is done it´s time to start dumping the content? of the DVD to the ISO file. To do so, press the big button with the icons of a CD and a CD folder on it:

??????????????

?

The dumping process starts and can take a while to end:

?

If no errors were find, the process ends playing a tone and displaying this window:

?

Press OK button to dismiss this window and eject your game DVD from the drive.

Repeat the same process for all the PS2 Original Games you have.

?

?

Chapter2.? CREATING A MEMENTO DISK (PATCHING DISKS).

?

To enable MEMENTO FIRMWARE to authomatically start the back-up games of the disks when you insert them into the PS2, we need to create a MEMENTO DISK IMAGE.

Go to the folder where you decompressed the MEMENTO firmware and locate the MEMENTO DISC PATCHER program:

?

Duble click it to run, this window will be shown:

?

Now click on the PATCH ISO IMAGE and locate the ISO (or .NGR) file you have created from your Original Game (SEE SECTIONxx.ss):

?

It takes less than 2 seconds to and in a flash the ISO is patched:

?

If you try to repatch it or patch another already patched image, this warning will be shown:

?

On both cases press OK to dismiss the window. To close the program, press the X on the upper right corner of the MEMENTO DISC PATCHER window.

?

?

Chapter3.? CREATING A MEMENTO DISK (PATCHING DISKS).

?

After the ISO file of the game has been converted to a MEMENTO compatible ISO (see previous chapter), we can burn it to a DVD-R.? Open IMGBURN (or similar software like Nero) and on the MODE menu select WRITE:

?

Next, on the source section, click the folder icon to choose which image you want to load to burn, in our case the previously converted ISO:

??

?

After the image is loaded, insert a BLANK DVD-R in your DVD Writer and wait some seconds. The program will get the info on the disc and you can start burning the ISO.

It is a good practice burn the DVD-Rs in half of its maximum speed. Although, if possible burn every ISO at 4x. To start burning, click the big button with the icons of a CD:

?

The process begins and, for a full ISO size, the estimated time is about 15 minutes at 4x speed:

?

If no problems were found, the process end in a successful burned ISO:

?

?

TESTING THE BURNED DVD-R GAME.

Just insert the game into the PS2 and start it normally.

Memento will not take any action, and the MEMOR32 will behave as a normal Memory Card.

?

BOOTING BACK-UP OF ORIGINAL OR IMPORT? PS2 CD GAMES.

Ps2 games on CD must be burned on DVD-R in order to make them boot with Memento.

Simply exctract the ISO of the game and burn it in the "Memento Disk" format (see SECTION 4.3). Once this is done, simply place them into the PS2 and they will direct boot .?

Memento will launch the game and than SHUT OFF to avoid any inteference issue with the game.
