PSX - CDRWin......this creates .bin files which most patches are designed to be added to. This is necessary for mod-chip detecting games etc.
PC - If your burner does not support DAO RAW burning and cannot write sub-channel data, then you'll need to patch Securom and Safedisc protected discs (to name two) so any burning software is usable. The usual method (there are many) is to copy all files (including hidden files....tick this option in ...VIEW/FOLDER OPTIONS/VIEW.....show all files) to a new folder on your HD, the follow the instructions of the patch (either in the .zip file or from the page at GCW) then once completed, burn the contents of this folder (not the folder itself!) back to a CDR which named exactly the same as the original.

happy burnin'

I use Nero for un-protected psx backups and CDRwin for patched backups.....Never had a coaster yet......
