   1.  How do I get this to run on my Playstation 2?                        
                                                                            
       You need a way to play CD-rs.  This either requires a modchip or     
       some type of boot disc, like a Gameshark 2 or Action Replay 2.

   3.  I burned the cd but it doesn't work.  What now?

   4.  I downloaded a bin/cue from somewhere but it doesn't work.
