Can't burn PS2 CD's with my LG recorder

[epsilon]

I own a LG 12x10x32 CED-8120B recorder. It is supported by CloneCD.

I have tried many times but failed to backup my copy of Tekken Tag Tornament. I am using the USB SBOX mod chip. I have used both CloneCD and CDRWIN to backup my copies. And I am pretty sure that the settings I have used in the programs are right, since I have researched alot on the net about burning CD's and copy protection on CD's. I was trying to burn the CD using the 'image' method.

So after trying all means to burn the game, I decided to try it to burn it on another recorder. So I went to my friends house and burned it successfully THE first time using the HP 9100i recorder. And I even didn't use CloneCD or CDRWIN, I just used the HP program that comes with the recorder. I made a direct CD to CD copy.
Btw, I also tried using CD to CD option on my computer in CloneCD and CDRWIN - didn't work. And then I went to another friends house just to make sure that this successfull attempt was not a fluke. He also has a HP recorder. But again I was successfull.

So I have come to the conclusion that the LG recorder can NOT burn PS2 CD's but HP recorders can. Is anybody else in the same predicament?

Or it is something I am doing wrong? Please somebody HELP. I am really getting frustrated.
Please reply soon as I still have time to get my money back and get the HP recorder.
