Well..... I could give you the standard answer for questions like this one: " ** YOU'RE A MORON!!! READ THE DAMNED FAQS ** "
But... I won't.
What I will tell you is that it's IMPOSSIBLE to copy **ORIGINAL** Sega Dreamcast GD-ROM games using a standard CD-R or CDRW drive. If you'll look at the data surface of the disc, you'll notice a band of data near the inside spindle, followed by a little band of text or nothing, then the rest of the disc all the way to the outer edge is burned with a slightly different appearance.
The only part of the disc you can see using a standard CDR/CDRW/CD-ROM is the little bit near the spindle. This is the boot record. Sega Dreamcasts use "GD-ROMS", meaning "Gigabyte Disc". The standard CD drive won't read them.
To copy a GD-ROM you have to interface your Dreamcast to your PC using a special serial cable. Then you run special software on both the Dreamcast and PC (Serial/Slave) and you RIP the data from the Dreamcast. Afterwards, it has to be downsampled, hacked, patched and reconstructed to burn to a blank CD-R. It may still not work the first time or two. Especially if you don't know what you're doing.
Besides all of that, ### has a unique serial number that you must use. The serial number can only be used by one machine at a time and duplicate machines using the same serial number will from what I've heard, cause Sony to disqualify that serial number. If you planned to copy ### so you had a copy that you didn't have to worry about damaging, you can probably find a copy of ### online somewhere no the web or newsgroups. Just don't ask anyone HERE where to find it or you could be banned. If you planned to give someone else a copy of ### so you and they could play the game together, this won't work because you cannot share the serial number.
