Do some research mate.

firstly, go to the CloneCD homepage and check f your drive is compatible.

www.elaborate-bytes.com

Secondly, check what protection your games have at www.gamecopyworld.com

Or download ClonyXL from the above. this will check your CD and then pass on the parameters to CloneCD.

Also READ the info at GCW regarding copy protections and how to copy 'em. The best way to learn is to read for yourself then ask for help when you reach a particular problem.

Well said) ClonyXl will tell you exactly what settigns to use in clonecd and tell you what protection a cd uses. Some protections like securom won't be recognised, then istall that game and then use clony to check if it is a securom protected game!
