When you are going to rip your game onto your HDD, great a Folder called:
Games > [then a folder of whatever the game is called]
Then Press (Y) to bring up the menu once youre in the folder of the game you want to copy
And go down to CopyDVD
Then press A
It'll then come up with that warning sign, insert the disk into the disk tray and close it
Then wait around 10 seconds so you know the disk has loaded THEN press Confirm
It'll then start copying the game like it shows, but make sure your controller doesnt disconnect if you go away and leave it. I let mine disconnect once and it stopped copying the game.
