fritz6 - physical error protection- bypass with cdrwin??

I've tried to make a backup of fritz6 (Non-german version), following the instructions in gamecopyworld. I know it is for german version, but I thought the same method could be applied for other versions.
(Using cdrwin, annotating the sectors in which it fails, end making an image up to that sector (less one)). The resulting image.bin is not processed by nero (it refuses to burn the resulting image), and if I try to burn the image via CDRWIN it creates a useless CD audio track.
I'll try to make a image using CLONECD, but I'd like a more clever method, to avoid waiting useless hours to bypass the stupid 'physical ring'
I know it's a matter of time, but perhaps my CD-ROM don't like it (Someone said me the CD-ROM writer may get damage if you use it to do infinite stupid readings)

Thanks.

It works pretty with clonecd
The only pain in the ass is that you have to wait 1:45'
to get the image, whilst in 5 minutes should have extracted it

####ing stupid protections, I remember I was unable to get installed from CD-ROM the game grandprixlegends I had bought, with an older CD-reader, they only achieve to damage the CD-devices, stupid people....

Yes I remember....those protections can be very damaging to cd-drives. its a shame...I remember an older CD drive that I have would often spin up to *amazing* speeds (it would sound so loud and spin so fast, you would think it would explode), when trying to access some CD's.

Thankfully the newer drives don't seem to do that anymore.

I'm surprised Fritz6 doesn't use "dongle" protection, as its made from Chessbase too....
