SafeDisc problem
This is what I've done:
1) Made IMAGE.IMG with IMAGE.CCD and IMAGE.SUB 2) Wrote the IMAGE whit Alcohol120% and SafeDisc2 options 3) Run the autorun from the CD-READER (the other slot of mine!) 4) Installed the game Then on another PC: 1) Run the autorun from the CD-READER 2) Installed the game...ops... SafeDisc screen...ops... it doesn't work!!! Is there some difference between my and the other PC? What do I have to do with IMAGE.CCD and IMAGE.SUB? Help!!! |
the other 2 files are part of the main image, they contain sub channel data and other info, once burned they arent important, it sounds like you havent made a good image, check that your hardware is capable of burning sd2 images, if it can then try reading the orignal cd again at a lower speed when making the image
|
Maybe you had the emulation features of Alcohol or Clone CD activated while playing on computer 1?

So I've installed Alcohol120% for a trial on the second PC, but nothing... Moreover... I've tried to install the game on a THIRD PC (an old IBM ThinkPad, without CD-BURNER and with Win98SE just mounted) and everything works fine!!! I can't understand... |
Are you playing the game from a cd-writer in the second PC? If so may be because of the ATIP check.
|
Sometime I feel like I can't be understood... :confused:

I used the first PC CD-WRITER only to write the image. |
Was just checking all the bases, there are stupid people out there ;)
Anyway...have you tried running the original on the second machine to see if it works - it may be that there is a program installed on that machine that is blacklisted by Macrovision - so when you try to start a SD game (even with original), if it detects such programs it refuses to start. Daemon Tools, Playbackup, Insektors? If so, uninstall them or look for an update. |

I've tried to mount the IMAGE.IMG on Alcohol120% virtual drive and it works well. So I suppose it was a image burning problem, but why I can run the installer on the other two PCs? |
because maybe the other 2 pc's have less tempermental cdrom drives (clones that work are heavily reliant on the cdrom they are running from, i found that in most cases cheap and nasty cdroms stood a higher chance of being able to run the clones without problems) arent as tempermental when it comes to subchannel data etc..
