Of course I would disable my virtual drives afore.

My intention is, to prevent my orginal disk from scratces and damages that might appear due to allday-handling and useing.

This is possible only if you have optical drive connected through usb or firewire because only in this way the emulation of alcohol 120% or daemon tools is able to fool starforce that the disc is ok.If you try this with your ide optical drives it will not work because starforce will have direct access to them and the emulation won't work.There is no chance to make a perfect copy also because it is not possible to burn DVD in RAW mode and this is needed to copy the exact topology of the original DVD.
