trouble burning serious sam 2

jl2525 · #1 14-02-2002, 10:47

Hi, I want to burn a image of serious sam 2 (safedisk v2), I have a Liteon 12x/10x/32x (12101B), I know that my cd writer will not burn this image, however I want to know if there is a form to do it, a patch, maybe? Also, I tried to read the image with daemon tools 3.02 and it only shows the content of the cd, if I try to execute any file, windows says "setup.exe is not a valid win32 application". Can anyone help me?

Thanks in advance

Firstly what prog are you using?

If it is clonecd, Get clonyXXl then use the setttings it gives you in clonecd and then remake the image. Then use deamontools and see if it works...

What you also can do is just burn it and then replace the exe with a cracked one.

If the setup exe is protected then you can get a prog that will insert a cracked setup exe in the image before you burn it. I have forgotten what it is called, but just search the forum, because there is a big thread on it.

Or you can use betablocker.....

you can also make an image of the game with clone cd and then see if it is working with using daemon tools...

Ok, the image is in a bin and cue files, and I tried to do a Clone CD image with parameters from ClonyXXL, but it still only shows the cd files and folders under daemon tools

I got a cracked exe and tried to burn the image, but it also didn't let me install the files... only the same error "setup.exe is not a valid win32 application" :P
So I'm gonna try betablocker with the clonecd image I just made, just want to know what number do I have to enter in the "# sectors" field? 1000? And by the way, this is the newest betablocker (Beta2Sd2_251_English.exe)? Well, thanks for trying to help me!

I have the retail version of Serious Sam 2 (US). Ran it through Clony XXL first for Safedisk and it did not show any protection. After the install I checked SecurRom and it had not protection. I copied it using CloneCD and the copy worked fine on 3 machines. Copy was made with a Yamaha 3200EZ in WinXP

Where do you get clonyXXl and is it any different from clone cd database?

just burnt a copy tonight (serious sam 2) using my plextor 24/10/40 and clone cd, no beta blocker no crack etc...

Used clone cd to write image with fast error skip on speed at 4 X and fast error setting set at 3 retrys and error correction none. Wrote image to disk at speed 6 X buffer underrun protection on and always close ticked.

It does have protection. It has the latest Safedisk 2 (2.51.021). You can check this with Safedisk Analyser.

You can get Clony XXL - 99% English at http://zap.to/EngXXL
