ok ive also got the pal uk version and have copied it sucessfully. first of all, make sure you got the right patch for it. it should be the pal uk version crack. anyway if you do all that right and it still doesnt work then it could be that you are using crap quality cdrs. you should go for verbatim or tdk. and also you should try to write at a slower speed such as 1x or 2x.
if that all fails than you are in trouble because i just checked the clone cd data base (clone cd can copy just about anything you throw at it) and that phillips 400 is not compatible. anyway if all else fails, get a friend to copy it or just buy a new writer, they are pretty cheap these days.
good luck
