I just tried out my new Sony CRX185A1 and made a working backup of GTA3, same as with the Liteon. In both cases I used CCD Version4.0.1.10 and recommended settings provided by Clony XXL version 2.0.0.6 on a Pentium 3 1Gig, Asus moboard, 256 meg sdram and old faithfull Matrox G400 Max.
All I need to do now is build another machine around the spare burner. Thanks again guys for all the advice.
