Totally DISGUSTED Help Anyone?
 

Ok Ive done a search to see if anyone else had the problem Im having(Noone). Also did many searches @GCW and GCW file forms. I've spent 3 days and still can't get THPS3 backed up. I know it's protected with Cd check, SO maybe someone could help me out.
I have a Plextor 8/4/32A Writer with a Toshiba 48X XM6702B CDRom (both were recommended by clone cd when I purchased them).
I'm using CLone CD version 2.8.4.3. tried many settings from none to all that are listed in CD Media pages and elsewhere on GCW. So I tried uninstalling Clone CD, tried my older version 2.7.3.1. still the same thing. I noticed the main and sub buffers are only going to 5% when I try reading the cd. I also tried Reading to image and got the same results. Tried setting the speeds 1x,2x,3,x to max. Ive made about 4 coasters already leaving it read +write with my cdrom and writer (2 each per drive) which I don't know if the main and sub buffers have anything to do with it but all 4x's they were only reaching 5% throughout the entire read, when I burn a result of a coaster is made. I know when I backed up my previous PC Games those main and sub buffer would reach 100% and I had a backed up copy of the game. Please Help.
Anyone have any clue to what my problem is?

try blindwrite suite. I had problems getting a "perfect" copy of alice with clonecd. But blindwrite was able to do it. you'll have to image then burn, but it does work. You can get it from www.cdmediaworld.com

Thnx woz_mann. I'll give it a whirl.

im doubting the only protectoin on tony hawk is a cd check, but if thats all you think there is.....good luck to ya.

If its only CD Checks just copy/paste and then burn it with Nero.

Also update your Clone CD and get Clony XXL

yea...and i don;t think THPS3 is just CD-CHECK, seeing tha thte last one was SD2

As far as only CD Checks I'm just going by GCW website http://www.gamecopyworld.com/ (under THPS3)
I couldnt agree more that there's SD2 on it,or something else,(Im not sure whats on there besides what GCW states on the site) but I first used Clony XL, and it said unknown protection. Read the errors with ClonyXL. and messed with the settings. I got a backed up copy with Clone CD 2481 last night. How I dont know because I tried it again and its not copying. The back up works, :) but I would like to know why its not always working. Ill try XXL thanks for the tip. I was totally unaware of the new version. I did try YaPs without help last night. Ill try Nero and updating my Clone Cd version. Any settings that I need to be aware of with either program? I appreicate the help guys. I freaking pulling my hair out LOL :D for 3 days now Oh well I at least I wont need a haircut :rolleyes:

if it doesnt work you can try clonecd's Amplify weak sectors(AWS)
