yeah, its quite a nice tool to use when you loose the original .exe file. However, it takes just as long to extract and copy all that stuff as to reinstall the game...
I am not sure about opening BlindWrite files though...
Can a BlindWrite file be covnerted into an ISO image without loosing all the CD protection data?
BTW, another note on that Alcohol 120%. It DOES do pre-gap (here we go again,
). Its just there no way to enable it through Alcohol 120% itself, you have to use Alcohol - it FORCES Alcohol 120% to read pre-gap stuff. Maybe it had issues, so they disabled it in Alcohol 120%.
