Hi matey.

Firstly, stop worrying. Your Plextor drive is absolutely fine.
The problem you describe is more than likely due to the version of safedisc2 protecting each game title.

From about ver 2.40.10 onwards (emerged around August time ish!) the new safedisc2 versions try to check the ATIP portion of the disc in your drive.
Pressed silver originals DO NOT contain this ATIP.
CDRs do.

AND, ONLY cd burners can check if it's there.

So, your copy is perfect, but your cd burners are "giving the game away" that the disc is a cdr and not an original.

SOLUTION>
Run all sd2 titles from a cdrom, or use software to hide this. Examples include DAEMON TOOLS, and the latest CLONECD version which has a tray based menu with this "hide cdr" option.

Hope this has calmed ya down!
