It is possible to copy Ra2 with Clone CD as long as you have the right hardware (a Safedisk 2 capable burner), and you use the correct settings in Clone CD.

As you most likely don't have such a burner, here are instructions for backing up Ra2:

OK, first of all get a copy of UnSafeDisk 2 (it's free, jus have a look around GameCopyWorld for a link)

Copy the contents of the CD (by the way jus do exactly the same for both CD's) to a temp directory.
Now ya wanna use UnSafeDisk to unwrap the exe. Here's how:

Gather all the dll's you can find on the CD (easiest way is to use the Find facilty in Windows and type in *.dll to find all the dll's
Please note, I found some extra dll's in the folder I installed the game to which weren't on the CD, so jus gather all these up as well.

Put all the dll's in a folder and put the main exe into the same folder (also note, the setup file is also SafeDisk 2 protected and needs to be unwrapped too - it's hidden away in the setup folder of the CD)
Now use UnSafeDisk 2 to unwrap the two files.

Replace the original files in the temp dir, with the new "cracked" ones and burn the dir to a CD.

Slightly complicated, but works all the time.
OK thanks for reply. Can not find a working link to unsafe disk 2, please help.
cannot find the setup file you are talking about. the only file that unsafe will except is the ra2.exe. rebuilt that and that launches game but then asks for CD
