I disagree with your settings for CDRWin.
Error recovery should be set to 'Abort'.
There are NEVER any read errors unless the cd is damaged in which case a good backup is not ever obtainable if you are going to ignore errors.
CDRWin was originally designed to backup PSX and therefore there should NEVER be any deviation from the default values that are there once CDRWin has been installed.
The actual sequence for copying PSX should have a few more steps.
1. Create the bin image.
2. Use Binchunker or CDMage to scan .bin file for any corruption. (If any does exist, recreate .bin using slower read speed, if you cannot get a .bin free from corruption - try another source cd. This does not happen very often)
3. Apply patch if required and RESCAN for corruption.(IF there is corruption - wrong patch used or bad patch - delete - no point in burning this)
4. Burn the cd.
5. Read the cd back to ensure that you have burnt a good cd. (If a bad cd key registration used this will fail.)
