Trouble Installing Sd 1&2 games

[fixxxer]

hello everybody, i'd like your help here, i have the following problem: All safedisc & safedisc 2 games that i have copied (1:1 copy via Clone cd <fast error skip only selected>) will run correctly with the help of betablocker or deamon tools but all refuse to install from both my cd-r writer and my dvd player. Take "Emperor battle for dune" for example. All other cd's will start the game and work correctly and the install cd too , but i cannot install the game. At First without the help of deamon tools the installer wouldn't even start it gave a cyclic redudancy error (something like that) after i installed deamon tools i could get the installer to begin but it couldn't read the main .exe file from the cd. I also got max payne with the same prob. it will run , but not install. Can you help me guys? My cd-r is a ricoh mp7163a and my dvd is from Asus.

Yo9ur Ricoh burner cannot copy 1:1 safedisc 2 titles. It will do safedisc1 however.
Of course the images or imperfect cds will work with daemon tools (and only some burners will work with betablocker altered cd images)

So, your cds are NOT perfect 1:1 titles and thus do not have the data wanted by the protection mechanism.
Also, latest versions of safedisc2 will not run cdr's from a burner or certain readers. This is because the latest versions have a "securom2" style ATIP check to see if the cd is pressed silver or a cdr.
Solution to your problems is either
1. Run your games from a hard drive CloneCd image mounted with daemon tools.

OR

2. Buy a burner which will handle safedisc2 (see clone cd homesite under "correct EFM encoding"
