Problem is, I've reread his post five times now, and I still don't see any reason for your snotty attitude mr daves_22. He couldn't smell that you were an "electrical engineer", nor could he know that you already completely checked the original cd for defects, since you FAILED TO MENTION THIS IN YOUR FIRST POST. I have a confession to make to you mr daves_22 : NOBODY here is psychic. That's right, we don't have super powers, and we can't know what you already tried and what not without YOU telling US. Krondike just tried to help you out. If you object to point 4) of his post, it's a kind of tradition here to reply more or less POLITE. This is because your snotty reply is not only read by Krondike, but also by other potential contributors (i.e. me). It's completely up to krondike now if you get another reply, I'm moving to the next thread, where they don't have snotty electrical engineers. Goodbye. You probably won't miss much of my 'expertise' since I'm not an "electrical engineer' anyway....

His remarks were not necessary as all I asked was for information from anyone having trouble with a cdrw brand that isnt tested on elby site, and isnt mentioned in most of the previous posts that I read so far.
I have burned on three different cdrw's, I have tried direct 1:1 copying, I have tried the patches, and to no avail, I still am getting errors such as : Error cannot read file.
These errors have come at different times, but always with a sound file from the game, which leads me to the conclusion that it is the copy protection still giving me problems.
So before I install the dvd drive and the poloroid burnmax40 into my computer, I was hoping to get some accurate information as to whether it was even a viable option.
Also, I have the hard drives connected to a ultra66 card from promise, and the cdrom and cdrw is connected to the motherboard ide controller. I am going to take the via busmaster off as I am using the 4 in 1 ver. 4.38(v) drivers, and try running them with the microsoft ide drivers to see if it fixes the problems. Secondly, I will try to unhook the hard drive, and use it off the ide controller on the motherboard to see if that helps......
I apologize for being rather short in my response, but after working on this for six hours, burning and reburning, it is rather annoying to have a response such as his.........basically, I am trying everything possible to find or locate the exact problem that is causing the errors. The info I was asking for was specific, and reading the response that I got, I didnt see any attempt by him to answer one of the questions asked.
Sincerely,
Dave S.

Okey. If u don't have done this.
Try Blindwrite, poloroid burnmax40, nero burning rom, Clone CD and more burning programs. But burn it into a CD-RW disc, then U can erase if the copy faled.
One thing U also should know if U don't, Newer Safedisc can defekt your cd-burner. If u are trying to do a backup of the game.
Okaj one more suggestion.
Do an new image with .iso formats. Use WinImage and then extract the image file (.iso) run CD-Check (a program also) and check if there is any files are wrong.
If there is. Yeah U got a problem.
If it isn't try to brun the .iso file (the image file) and but burn it so slow at possible. They slower U burn the CD the better quality U get.
So don't burn in 40X if your cd burner support it. Try do it so slow att possibile.
Then reply on this topic again. Then maybe sombody else can help U.
Safedisc version has never been a problem for me so I'm supprise that's are making problems for u.
-->I'm stupid
and the others people are not!
