Beginner - Query Burning an .ISO

[TippeX]

whats the software then?, and who assured u it works...?

[nheather]

It's not a game - it's a Piano Tuition Software package (Adventus) that I bought for my 8 year old daughter to use with a midi keyboard.

It was quite expensive (best part of £100) so I was disappointed to find that it has to be in the CD drive to run the program. I've seen the state that some of my daughter's Barbie disks get in so I wanted a backup.

A work colleague told me he could do this so I lent him the CD. He returned it with a copy which he assured me works.

I tried it at home and found that it would only work erractically.

I told my colleague and once again he confirmed it worked on his machine so this time he gave me the .iso so I could burn my own.

I tried Nero first and got the same results (would only play sometimes).

He had told me that he used Alcohol 120% (which I had never heard of) so I downloaded the trial and used it to burn a CD from his .iso - got the same results.

I then discovered the Alcohol 120% emulation features (particularly the sub-channel).

I shall speak to my colleague at work today - perhaps it was working on his machine because he has emulation on.

Ideally, I want to make a backup that doesn't need Alcohol 120% to be installed.

Cheers,

Nigel
