i have copied my origianal copies of red alert 2 and no-one lives forever, using the latest version of cd clone. (giants runs ok)

the problem is that after making the back-up of the games, is that when i reboot the pc i get a message ala' direct x "system files are being updated" kind of message.
i then try to play the game but my pc then freezes and i have to re-boot several times before i can play the game.

nolf is'nt too bad but red alert 2 is very tempermentle ? and i've had to install the razor patch to make red alert 2 work.

my cd re-writer is a ricoh dvd/cd-rewriter
mp 960a-dp and is supposed to be compatible with cd clone( i am using the origianal firmware and will not upgrade as i have read that future firmware upgrades will not allow back-ups og games)

i do not know if this makes a difference but after patching nolf(with the latest game patch) just after i had made a working back-up, nolf asked me for the origianl disc?

i then removed nolf and re-installed the back -up of nolf.

ps. which cd clone demo works with these games and where cani get the demo's from?
