a stupid question ...

[þÄ®âÐÖx]

Easy way to tell if it's a CD or a DVD: Chuck in in your CD-ROM drive.. if it doesn't read it, it's probably a Dvd... or it's scratched... if you have a dvd drive, you can also try it in there... if it works, and it's over 700MB, it's a DVD.

Yeah... but I was meaning more of the physical side, by actually 'looking' at it, not it's data structure, e'g if it's purple it's a dvd, if it's silver it's a cd etc. A bit of a silly question I know but I was just curious.

From the game's I've played with:

Metallic-Blue color = CD
Silver = DVD (looks like ordinary CD-ROM)

Then my theory about my demo disk must have been correct.

To check the type of media for PS2 games, check the side of the game's paquege, if there are only a couple of numbers its normal cd, but if it has a DvD Rom logo, its dvd.
