A Few backup questions

[conners]

I`ve not backed up a game for 2 years lol looing for a few answers.

Whats the best program to backup with?

How big should a full rip be? How many bites?

Do I do will full backup or do I use split vid?

Cheers

Check your backup iso's before you burn them with abgx v1.01 :

Should all rips be the same size?

I`ve ripped viva pinata and NFS Undercover, both different sizes, but both pass on agbx. Is this normal, im sure in the old days the games were all the same size? When I ripped NFS Undercover and checked it, I asked if I wanted to change the ss on it as detectable, does it need patching or will it be fine on 1.6 ixtreme

Set Autofix to level 3 in abgx and hit ctrl+s to make the settings stick.
Also, on the quickstart tab, you will notice there is a welcome button, well if you click it, there is a drop down list of topics you should read, read them!
Always fix your iso if abgx says there is a problem with it, you need to make sure your backups are properly stealthed as a retail disc, especially if you are going to play on LIVE with them.
