Sim's on Holiday

Tezzi · #1 07-04-2002, 07:00

Hi there,

Anyone tell me how to make a working Backup of Sim's on Holiday and hot date, as my CD Drive sometimes scratches the CD's making them almost impossible to use.

I've got CloneyXXL, but can't figure out what to do. I've found out that On Holiday has got Safedisc 2 protection, but not how to overcome it... Would using CDrWin to make a backup be better?

If i can make a backup of it, do i have to have a patch aswell??

any help would be most appreciated as i don't want to spend more money on Buying another Copy (when i say copy i mean original - I've seen people say "copy eh?? pirate"), it's a good game.... but not that good

I forgot to mention the following....

Reader : LG 52X drive
Writer : Liteon 24102B (I think it's the 40x Read, 24x write, 10x Re-write)

You will have no problems backing up this game.

Download Clone CD 4 and read the disk from your Lite on, and write with the Lite-on. CCD4 will do all the work for you, you only need to tell it that it's a game cd.

If you don't want CCD4 cos it's in Beta stage (it's perfectly workable at the moment in my opinion), then you can get the previous version and tick Fast Error Skip during the read.

Well i tried using Clonecd V4, and an Earlier Version

I've now got two Lovely Silver Coasters Sitting on my table with cups on top of them, perhaps i should start selling these as a new luxury item on eBay??

Any more Help would be great!!

If you are playing the game from your burner then enable Hide CD-R Media in the Clone CD Tray.

When i try booting up the CD after burning it, it came up with

Start has caused an error in KRNL386.exe... I'm using Windows ME... so i can't even play with the Backup CD created...
