try slowing down your read speed

When you get errors reading ANY PSX cd it means the source disc is too badly damaged to bother copying.

thats not strictly true tho' is it mr moderator.reducing your read speed will sometimes overcome it or if you have more than one cdrom drive swapping drives can work as well.

looks like I have to repeat myself -
'When you get errors reading ANY PSX cd it means the source disc is too badly damaged to bother copying.'

better agree to disagree then!

use CDRWIN and change the error recovery setting to 'replace'. This will replace all the scratched sectors of the disc with zero's. Depending on how scratched the cd is will determine whether it'll work or not, but it is probably worth a try.

Good luck,
