I'm having trouble reading Safedisc CD's, but the Clone CD FAQ says

[GJB]

that my model (Ricoh CD-R/RW MP7083A) is a good model for both reading and writing CD's. I've tried reading Driver (a safedisc protected game) with both that drive and my Creative 52X CD-ROM and neither works. The CD-R/RW doesn't do anything, and the Creative drive just gets errors for over an hour while not progressing.

I followed the option instructions from the Clone CD games Database (nothing checked), so I don't know what is going on. I appear to have the right CD-R/RW and the right settings, what now?

Thanks.

Have you ticked 'fast error skip' that should speed it up.

[do one]

don't worry about the errors,they are supposed to be there,usually upto 10,000.depending on your hardware they can take a very long time to read,but once you've got past them then it's plain sailing.like above(depending on your hardware)ticking fast error skip helps

Actually, I experimented some more, and ALL my CD's won't copy. When about 10-14% done it stalls and locks up my computer, or Clone CD goes crazy (and I can't open my CD-R/RW drive until I restart).

I gather it is some sort of driver problem. But I don't know what/where to remove/install.

Any help? I think someone mentioned IDE drivers, but I don't know where to find them.
