I have burned the image file at 1x as a data and as a game disc and both yeild a red border when booting up with swapmagic. Anyone have any tips as to what I can do to get this to work? Using CloneCd version 4.2.0.2. I am using Optimum discs which I have used to backup cd based games so I know it is not the media.

I also tried burning using cdrwin and the same thing happens.

what version is your PS2?

It's a version 5.
