It won't work for converting, the extraction from BIN/CUE files, in the first step has error in it while extracting around 79%, even though I press ignore, it won't extract.

if the extraction has failed then it is because the download has failed to complete correctly, i.e. Your download has failed
if you really do not know what download is then to put in simple terms it is what you do when you get a file from online

It doesn't work, after conversion, burned, and then test it. It says, Please insert Playstation or Playstation 2 Disc, with red color cloud background.
What are you using to play backups???
A PS2 can not play backups on it's own, it needs something extra to play backups.

backups = burned disc rather than a pressed disc or a retail disc
retail & pressed = original disc
backup & burned = CD-R DVD-R DVD+R and other writable media
extra = mod chip, soft mod, some sort of swap trick or boot disc ect ect
The PS2 can not boot up backup discs on it's own
not just noobish, super noobish, these should be basics but I guess if you don't know then you just don't know, so call this a learning curve

Game shops will not sell mod chips no or any of the other types of mods, you need to do this yourself
Mod Chips require soldering into your console, you can buy those online at mod chip stores
Swap Magic a disc set CD and DVD can be used as a swap trick method (lid sensors require locked to use or a slide card for the older bulky PS2)
Soft mod via FMCB (ESR OPL ect ect) there are tons of install methods, including via cheat CD's that is an easy option some of the other methods can be complicated though
Have a look at http://bootleg.sksapps.com/tutorials/fmcb/ for the soft mod option and look at the Installation drop down for some of the install options
I can further guide you if needs be, though I don't really want to have to explain every small detail so do some reading up first to get a better understanding first
Note: that the newer PS2 slim can't use a software mod such as ESR as Sony stopped the memcard exploit, the newer PS2 slims have almost half the top surface of the console glossy, but the older versions only have a thin stripe that is glossy
The only Modern-ish console that requires no mod and can play backups without issue or modification is the Dreamcast
Older consoles like the Sega CD/Mega CD and other CD consoles of the time also did not need a modding but those are hard to come by at a reasonable price now

You can't play *ANY* burnt/backup games without modding your PS2. FMCB has been mentioned several times in this thread. That acronym means Free Memory Card Boot. As it's name suggests, it's free, you can download it and install it on a memory card.
FMCB doesn't support CDs, which is why many people pursue DVD conversions. But again, you can add Cogswap to your FMCB install, and with a legitimate CD game just swap discs to play CDs.
*PSA* Wii Redump collector's can now unscrub ISO files. So scrubbed games can now be verified. You can find the program to do this here
P.S. I have this game working from DVD (DVD+R to be exact), but you still require a way of playing it from DVD-/+R otherwise you will just get the message saying Please insert Playstation or Playstation 2 Disc
I used a method currently not listed I may add that method myself to the FAQs
Worry about this though after you can play backups that currently you can't

mod chip users can just urn this directly to a CD-R do not need to convert to burn onto DVD media
or you can burn what is linked in the code box under this to a DVD that I personally converted it, because my software mod can only read DVD media so I made a DVD conversion
