Introduction of a newbie (just made first copy, Max Payne)

[Aotis]

Hi everyone, I tried all night trying to make a back up of Max Payne and finally got a good copy. For some reasons, Nero nor clonecd wouldn't read the original cd. I figured out to check "skip fast error" thingy... and it finally read, took me all night to figure that out. buttt... the forum help, so thanks majorly to everyone. Can someone explain why it wouldn't read the original cd in the first place? I am new at this, not too harsh please, thanks
