Problem running burned Policenauts iso on real PSX

Greetings fellow Policenauts-addicts!
I hope somebody can help me with this. I suppose other people will run into the same troubles as I did:
Since the completion of the patch seems to be just around the corner, I wanted to be sure, to be able to play the translated game as soon as possible. Therefore I ripped my copy of Policenauts using Isoproducer, burned it on CD and gave it a try on my un-modded japanese PSX (SCPH-7000) with the help of an Activator module.
The game started just fine as the original copy, but during the intro movie when Jonathan sits by his desk, the game crashes as soon as the photo of all five Policenauts appears on the screen. I compared my iso file to one I downloaded and they are identical in size (747.752.544 Bytes). I even burned the downloaded iso and it crashes at the exact same moment. I tried different burn speeds and about six different CD-Rs but to no avail. I even tried all copies I burned on an also un-modded PAL PSX (SCPH-5552) but it's all the same.
Since the game starts on both consoles and crashes in the same instant, the Playstations should not be the problem.
Has anyone experienced the same problem or can someone help me with this? Has anyone tried to run a burned copy of Policenauts on a modded console?
Thanks for any help!
