Make a exact CD copy

[smackfan761]

I'm trying to make a "backup" copy of a game that I have but when I try to play the backed up copy, I get an error message saying "please insert play disc", which is already in the disc drive. I was told that when you make backup copies of games, that it doesn't copy some files and that's why I can't us it. Does anyone know how I can make a copy of this game and use the backup disc to play the game?

make an .iso of the disc then reburn it. it keeps all formatting.

Well clonecd will make an exact copy of game cds so you can have a backup of it.

It is better to use a cd rom emulator,make a vcd of your cd and play the game from your harddrive.

yeah use clonecd ive got it and it copies them properly and doesnt leave anything out.

Try something like nero they have a copy entire cd selection

Sometimes there's Anti-Burning stuff in the games. Thats's why you should use Alcohol 52% or 120%

Yea use Alcohol 120% like me but i just make a .iso and play it from my drive but i think you can just install the game and patch it

 

[yugiohstrife]

yeah true true

actually. no cd patches will work better if u get the ASPI update I found out for soem odd reason. he he. also it will help take decryption out as well off dvds and help them play better. I recommend you all do so.
