Works when mounted with D-tools but not when burnt to CD!

[Sam Leach]

I have backed up the game Battlefield 1942. So I have a .mdf and a .mds for each disc. When I mount the image file using Daemon tools it installs fine and plays fine but when I burn it to a CD it wont play (stays on load up pictute thing for ever) and wont install past 7% (It says media not found or something)
I burnt it with Alcohol 120% with these settings:
Write speed: max.
Write method: DAO/SAO <---might be problem?
Enable buffer underrun technology ticked and the rest un ticked
Datatype: customise

I have already waisted 1 CD so wanted to ask on here before I try different settings :S
Please answer people who are familiar with alcohol 120%, thanks

You've proven your image is good. Try burning at the slowest speed at Safedisc settings. Not all burners are equal, some suck at burning images.

@Sam Leach
Battlefield is a Safedisc 2 protected game so you should just choose Safedisc 2/3 as the Datatype not Custom. Like ash2dust2 has already said the image does appear to be good but you may also want to do the read again choosing Safedisc 2/3 as the Datatype and then burn the new image as a Safedisc datatype.

Ok, I was under the impretion that once you have made the image with Alcohol 120% it got rid of what ever protection it had, so the reason I didnt select Safedisc 2/3 was because I thought it had been removed!

Thanks for the advise!

So what does alcohol 120% actualy do to the protection (how does it differ from making an image with Nero)??

Just burn it on the disc as and image instead ie *.mds *mds files and then mount it like you do on the HDD with virutal drive thats works

Go Here and investigate the forums they will show you everything you wish to know about backing up games.
