I guess you did not read the back dialog boxes from cybercop clone 2831 with no cracks no patches

The biggest problem you are facing is getting past the protection. It can be done however, fewer cdwriters are capable of reading beneath the protection well enough to ensure a 1:1 copy. The best 2 programs to use by far are CloneCd and The Blindsuite. These programs are capable of performing the burn but unfortunately are VERY hardware demanding which kills most people. The Manufacturer of CloneCd doesn't even have an updated list of the burners that will work..I have desperately searched for those people who have and have not had success but it varies soooooo much. Some HP drives work some don't. Some Sony Drives work and some don't etc...etc..
The only way that you are going to be sure is to try both programs out using a CD/RW so you don't make any coasters..also, I have noticed that the settings that work for some might not work for others..because of their cdwriter. I assure you it can be copied..just be patient..try different versions of Clonecd, not just the "Newest" one. I finally succeeded in helping a guy and it took us 2 weeks to figure out the right mixture of settings and programs to burn a Safedisk 2 protected game...but it can be done.
My recomendations would be to try CloneCd first in version 2.8.3.1, if this doesn't work do a FULL UNINSTALL TO INCLUDE THE REGISTRY SETTINGS (USE CLONECD REGFIX), then start going back revision by revision (no more than 3 revisions) until either it works or you have determined that it just will not. After this download the "BlindSuite" and see if BlindRead and BlindWrite will work for you. This program has numerous settings as does cloneCd so try them all..many recommendations of settings are available from me and others so feel free to ask!!

Cybercop, Thanks for the advice but could you please clarify on the different settings for clone CD. I have tried burning ra2 with clone cd once or twice but for some reason it says the "image file" is too big for the CD. Even though the Ra2 cd is 638mb and the blank cd is 650mb.
Also where can you find the less recent Clone cd because I really want to copy this.
Thanks and Happy Christmas.

I successfully burned it using CloneCD 2.8.3.1 with my TDK VeloCD 12-10-32. I was out of 80 minute CD's so I had to select overburning to fit. You will either need to be able to overburn a 74 minute CD or use an 80 minute CD if possible. Otherwise you are out of luck unfortunately!

Hallo zusammen,
hatte das selbe problem wie viele hier....
Ein Backup von einem safedisk 2 Kopierschutzspiel funktionierte nur in meinem Plextor PXW 121032A. Habe CloneCD 2.8.3.1 benutzt.
Nach mehreren verbranten CD versuchte ich es mit der neusten Version BlindWrite Suite!! Und siehe da das Backup funktioniert auch in meinem normalen CDROM.
