Help me make my own iso/bin from my own games

I have 8 ps1 games. I have tried making an iso and .bin file from legend of mana and neither will work with epsxe1.6. I am using a demo version of magiciso.

Should I use a different program, what am I doing wrong? I have epsxe configured properly with the ntsc bios.

Please help, thanks.

For freeware I recommend ISO Producer. I used it on 12 discs and though I had to create the ISO more than once sometimes they all worked eventually.

A more reliable option is CloneCD which has a 30-day trial period. And below is part of a step-by-step guide from an Emuforums post that I saved to a .txt file. I don't remember the author, but the method works perfectly. I deleted all my old ISOs and used this to replace them.

1. Insert the PSX disc in your Burner (NOT the regular CDROM, as chances are it won't read subchannel info)

2. Fire up CloneCD, preferably 4.0.0.0 and up.

3. Click on the "Read to Image File" Button (the one with the glasses)

4. Now select your burner from the drives listed.

5. You'll now see a couple of profiles. We'll need to create a custom one though. Right click on the white area and select "New".

6. Name your new profile "PlayStation Disc" or "PSX Backup" or "PIRACY RULZ!!!111!" or whatever.

7. Input the following settings into the profile:

Data Read Settings

Read Speed Data: Max
Read Subchannel Data from Data Tracks: Checked
Regenerate Data Sectors: Checked

Audio Read Settings

Read Speed Audio: Max
Audio Extraction Quality: Medium(Fast)
Read Subchannel Data from Audio Tracks: Checked
Only Read the First Session: Unchecked

Error Handling

Fast Error Skip Settings: Off
Abort on Read Error: Off
Don't Report Read Errors: Off
Intelligent Bad Sector Scanner: Off

After setting all that, click "Next.

8. Now you name your .ccd file. If you want to have a .cue sheet file, check the appropriate box for it.

9. CloneCD will now make your ISO, or Disc image. Grab something to eat while waiting, or browse for porn, or post at Emuforums, it's up to you.

Yeap, its good! But i still recomand Nero Burning Rom, its the best at this our! And stable too... You have to choose a recorder -image recorder- and he do the rest! Easy and safe! Good luck!

I am doing the same thing, but, my computer literally cant use Nero. And I have a program that is called Cheetah Cd + Dvd burners, and they have bin/cue burner and an ISO creator. But I when I want to burn a bin or cue, it doesnt show up. Should I use something else, or am I doing something wrong? BTW, I really cant use Nero. It does something to my computer where I have to delete part of the registry and program files to make it work right. It prevents the internet from working, random shutdowns, files corrupted, runs slow. So yeah. Would something like alchohol 120% work? Or is that only for burning them not creating?

i dont think you can rip isos with nero. Use clonecd or alcohol 120%
 
You can. Just go to Copy Audio CD Tracks. Then it'll have one data stream. You can make an image in .iso or .nrg format.

You can do so, around 8X but eventually it will make the image in the highest speed.

For me, I still stick with 8X speed whether I burn or make an image. (Don't want to blow up my CD player that is.) :)
