Unsuccessful CD Copying... continuously

[g2koolio]

Hell-o everyone

I'm new to this board and rather new to copying / writing cd's.

I have quite an impressive arsenal of games, which many of my friends like to borrow. Until recently I had no problem with this... however, one of my more prized collections (Baldur's Gate 2) was damaged terribly. It looked like they tried to scrape their walls clean with it.

Anywayz, I am having so much trouble making a personal backup of these games so that I never have to lend out the original. I have tried 650 Meg, 700 Meg, Re-Writables and always fail.

CD Clone, Easy CD Copier and Direct CD. I can't make one successful copy. While they all say successful, I place the cd in the drive and nothing comes up. When you can turn it over and notice something was burned onto it, you can never read it.

Please tell me what program I should use and what cd?
