Daemon Tools.

Make sure you opt to skip the third-party software attached with it when you're installing.

Daemon Tools works great. Very simple, very effective.

It's free -- as if you had to ask with me. :)

Take care,

I second D-Tools. I've used it for a few years and it's been superb.

Daemon Tools is a virtual CD-DVD ROM emulator. It allows you to run pirated and legitimate software on a PC without the disc.

D-Tools creates a virtual drive where an image of the original disc is stored on your machine, and every time you launch that program from your desktop, it uses the image on the virtual drive for the information instead of the physical plastic CD or DVD.

Take care,

Are you having problems with 120?

I've been using it for a couple of years without any hiccups. I like it.

In my experience, merely possessing a ps2 outside of its warranty period will cause it to have difficulty reading games :wink:

Couldn't tell you. I don't play pirated console games. I don't play new console games. Hell, I don't play console games at all! :)
