urgent copy protection

[Greybeard]

First off, no you can't play a copied disk in an unmodified machine. In order to get past your problem you need to get a copy of CDRWIN and use it to make a disk image. Then install a protection fix patch which is available for spyro 3 from several different sources. Then use CDRWIN to burn a disk from the patched image. Instructions are available on most sites that offer patches. Use a search site and type in spyro patch psx. Good Luck.
