Try making the images with low speed and also burning it with low speed.

Angel Of Darkness does not have a real copy-protection (only CD-Check), so everybody should be able to make 1:1 backups.

I did just as you said but still no luck.I used 1x speed for writing and 1X por reading the image.No luck so far.The cd seems to be fine but it keeps stoping during the installation and error messages appear.I even used Clony XXL to see what kind of protection it has and it says No protection/unknown protectionI really don't get it.My recorder is an MSI 52x24X52x and i've copied tons of games with it (Colin Mc Ray 3,C&C Generals,Indiana Jones And The Emperor's Tomb) but no luck with Tomb Raider.Any suggestions?

The only thing you can try now is:

1. create a folder "TEMP" on your harddisk
2. create a folder with the name/label of CD1 in this temp-folder
3. same for CD2
4. copy all files from CD1 to the CD1-folder
5. copy all files from CD2 to the CD2-folder
6. burn the discs using Nero (name the cds like the originals)

This should work, because the game does not have any copy protection !!!

If you get any read errors using GLH's method, it means the cd is damaged and has to be replaced. Contact the publisher or if you just bought it, bring it back to the store.
