How to copy Hot Date?

[sera]

Hi, and thanks for your answear. I tried to copy Hot date today did the Amplify weak sectors, fast error skip, read at 1x etc. all the tricks that I have read about but NO luck! The game installs OK, but when I try to play it, it does not even go further than the red hot date logo screen, when I change the exe file with a fixed one I downloaded it stops when it's loading with the blue screen and the text that rolls over the screen, and quits and goes back to the desktop. I tried to disable Norton antivirus and other programs running in the background, NO LUCK.......then I tried to play the game using the ORIGINAL hot date disc and it does not go further than the copied one......to the blue screen with the white text scrolling. I know this is a working copy of Hot date cause I borrowed it from a friend of mine and it works fine in his Pc. Can anyone tell me what the heck is going on here????? Can Hot date "see" that I have all kind of copying programs and utilities installed on my PC? I think I read that somewere, that games scanned for copying programs on the pc and if it finds one it wont start! is that true???

HELP!!!
