getting an image..

[Darean]

Ive copied a few times, but always cd-cd and I just select it to save the information on the harddrive, so its atleast not on the fly..but to make images, iso's or .bin whatever, which program should I use? I have blindread, clone cd, and cdr-win..Just to see I started blind read up and it said it would take like 6-7 hours..is this normal? thanks

alright thanks, Im going to start that now..and my second question lol, how do you know the image was copied succesfully on the computer, and i mean playable, of course it'll copy, but is there a way to test if it will work? without burning it of course
edit: And the game I tested crapped out, it had a bad sector(yea i set the settings correctly) and the game has a bad error I know of..I take it I cant copy this one?

u can get fireburner and scan it for corruption and also use cloney xl to scan the disk for read errors. if u are getting read errors that means the disk is damaged and there is a 99% chance that it will not work 100%.(it could freeze at a certain part or not work at all)
