Why do you wanna play "KINGDOM HEARTS 2" anyway its a crap game (in my opinion) But this way might help: "This is the best way to install games (either from optical media or from an ISO) in my opinion. You will need the freeware WinHIIP. First step is to connect your PS2’s hard drive to your PC. You can do this directly to the IDE bus or with some kind of case (FireWire or USB2, generally). (My hard drive connected to the FireWire case I recieved that day. Before that, I hooked it up to the IDE cables still visible below it. No, this is not my primary workstation, it’s a cheapo Dell Pentium III I got for free. :) ) Note that the hard drive will not show up in Windows Explorer, as it is not in a Windows-readable format. If you already have the ISO of the game you want to install, skip this next section. While WinHIIP can install games directly from media, I usually don’t do this. WinHIIP doesn’t support dual layer DVDs for one, and PS2 hard drives are easily corrupted by failed installations. Creating an ISO doesn’t take too long as it is. The choice is up to you, though. To make an iso of a DVD, you will need a program like the free DVD Decrypter. Launch DVD Decrypter, go to the ‘Mode’ menu, and select ISO>Read. Mash the big DVD>HD button and to create an ISO of the DVD. To make an ISO of a CD, you simply need an ISO creation utlitity. I use the shareware IsoBuster, but there are some decent free tools out there like LC ISO Creator. You can install multiple ISOs at once with WinHIIP, so repeat these steps for all the games you wish to install. Once you have the ISO(s) of your game, launch WinHIIP. Go to ‘Select Drive’ and select your PS2 hard drive. Go to ‘Add Image(s)’ and select the ISO(s) of the games you wish to add, filling out their names appropriately (don’t touch the other options). Be sure to double-check the CD/DVD selection, as sometimes it defaults incorrectly (thanks, BillyBoBob). I’m not sure what exactly this setting does, and I’ve never had any problems with the wrong setting selected, but better safe than sorry. When everything’s set to go, hit Start and watch your games install very quickly (I generally get 14-16MB/sec)!
