Backup Microsoft software

Hi all,
i'm trying to backup microsoft Encarta Encyclopedia Deluxe 2000 using CloneCD 4.2 and have Clonyxl also installed, i'm reading from a Goldstar CDROM drive to an image file on disk, Clonyxl told me the disk is an Audio disk but its an installation disk and I think the cd protection is SafeDisk, can any one tell me why this is please! Also CloneCD is taking a donkey's age to make the image file, after 30 mins it only had 2% copied, is this normal? at that rate it would 25 hours to copy 300000kb. Have installation cd's to be copied in a special way like do they need extra settings, at the moment i'm choosing Protected Game option when asked by CloneCD what type of cd it is. Any reply appreciated.

Generally applications don't use any copy protection at all. But try using cdkiller's copy protection detector >> www.cdkiller2002.tk << to scan the exe.
It may be that your cd is dirty or badly scratched, or the laser in your cd-rom is a bad reader.
Try cleaning the cd with a soft cloth, rubbing from the inside to the outside (not circular). And try a different cd-rom if you can.
