Hi, (again!!)

Charlie replied this to me about my “Best way to create Back-Up”:

“Best way to create a backup of CD games is to have a burner that is 'DAO-RAW+96' compatible with CloneCD”

I have a “Yamaha CD-R/RW Model: CRW2200E-VK”. Now, I’m using CloneCD v4.0.1.3 and in the supported writers list, my writer is “RAW-DAO 96” because it is form CRW2200E series. So, here are my settings for reading a data to image:

Profile Settings:
Data Read Setting:
Read Speed: (I’ve tried all. But nothing happens)
Checked: Read SubChannel Data from data tracks
Checked: Regenerate Data Sectors
Audio Read Settings:
Read Speed Audio: 8x (or lower)
Audio Extraction Quality: Best (Slowest)
Checked: Read SubChannel Data from audio tracks
Unchecked: Only read the first Session
Error Handling:
Fast Error Skip Settings: Automatic
Unchecked: Abort on Read Error
Unchecked: Don’t report read errors
Unchecked: Intelligent Bad Sector Scanner

Reader Options:
Capabilities:
Checked: Allow reading of SubChannel Data from data tracks
Checked: Allow reading of SubChannel Data from audio tracks
Checked: Allow reading of CD-Text form Audio CDs
Fast Error Skip:
Read Retries: 0
Error Correction: Software

This is the Log whenever I try to read the data of any game to an image file:

This keeps on going for hours and it never reaches more than 5%!!!

So this is my sad story. Hope there is an answer.

PS. I already know that Muslims are treated well in the UK!! My friend is there and he wants me to come and start my BSc. Studies over there. Thank You!
