But is there a way to work around it? ???

bot ck is right the best setings are default
however if you do have a scratched cd it is posible to make a backup with the error on ignore but you wont get a true copy i tend to use this if i try to burn a video hire shop copy as they are not looked after very well and have a lot of scratches another way is to d/l a cue and bin or iso and burn that might take a while though if you only have 56k :)

I hve a cable connection so speed isn't a prob but but why is internet needed and what do you mean by all this d/l stuff? ???

Is any one going to answer me, especailly you, Rimmer! I still have no working copies, but no ones helping out! :'(

The best burning combination for non clone cd compatible people : Read with cdrwin, patch, then burn at 4x with blindwrite. Blindwrite kicks the crap out of cdrwin. any objections to that?
