method for copying self-bootable backups??

jergrad · #1 15-02-2002, 23:49

i'm having trouble backing up existing self-bootable backup games. i've tried direct cd to cd backups on discjuggler and NTI, however, the cd player appears when i insert my backup in the DC. i'm able to copy any non-bootable backups fine, this problem just arises when copying self-bootable backups. any help would be much appreciated.

cabezico - are these copies from pre-existing self-bootable copies?? i've tried nero also and i can't seem to get it to work.

I was wondering if your were trying to copy a Kalisto release? If so thats probably your problem....My kalisto releases were bin.cue and i used bin2boot to make them a selfbootable cdi image..But now i want to make a selfbootable copy of the backup and it just doesnt work...I tried dj/nero/ and clone cd...same results...non-boot...any help on how to make a copy of a kalist release would be great..

Hey rob have u been able to make backups of kalisto releases that u have used bin2boot on? I also use dj 3.5 and burned around 80 dc games and they are all selboot..I have been able to make backups of every game except for about 4 games..They were all kalisto releases in which i used bin2boot to make it into a selfboot and as i said it burned fine and it did selfboot..But i cant make a selfboot copy of the backup..has anyone else ran into this problem? Thanx

open dj and go to copy cd from cd recorder, put the dc game in the burner,dj will make an image, then when it asks put in a cdr and click ok...after its done burning, u should end up with a copy of a selfboot game
