Try CloneCD. If you insist on using Nero, you'll need a crack.

personally i'd use blindwrite for that game

as said RincewindTheWiz have tried clonecd but again cant read past 2% - i ahve tried it in both my dvd and cd-rw but nothing. both disks are in a1 condition with no scratches or finger prints.

blindread also has problems.

i have done loads of game in the past and never had this problem before.

can some1 help?

Does clonecd actually stop and display an error message or does it seem to not continue ? If the latter, just let it go on for an hour and it should continue. There are bad sectors on the disc that seem to stall the copy process, but they are part of the copy protection and just slow down the copy process.

well it dont stop but it does slow right down to about 0.1kps and estimates it will take about 5 hours to complete.

so i should try again when got a day free? u reckon it may work then?

let it go
once it gets past the bad sectors (copy protection) it'll speed up and should only take 20 minutes to read

i've done this game with blindwrite, min read speed set to 1x, max read speed set to MAX with Adapt Speed checked. Took about 10mins to read.

And what model burner r u using?
