Lightbulb Medal of Honour

Lets get this straight if you want to back up your CD of medal of honour you need to do the following.

Use a program to convert your CD to an Iso file. Then convert it to a bin file with cue sheet. Then you will need a program that will burn bin and cue files.

This will give you a perfect copy of your original disk for back up.
Including the crap protection safe disk and the read errors that are on the disk to stop you doing a straight copy using the normal cd/software back up methods..

No it's not that simple. The ability to copy Safedisk 2 lies in the drives capability of correct EFM coding to regular bit patterns. So it is hardware dependant.

Also, using Clone CD is better than creating ISO's for cloning/=.

I spent several hours using cloney with Clone Cd and still couldnt get the disk to back up.
I know that safedisk puts the read errors on the Cd.

Im using a Teac cdrw and it still wouldnt burn.

The only way I found to backup the cd was to use winiso and then fireburner.

If someone know how to do it with clone cd please tell me as I couldnt find any way round it.

Also download Clony XXL to get the correct settings to use in CCD.

take the original cd,and the blank cd and put them facing towards each other.Now squeeze them really hard till one cd spills onto the other....

And the "buy a lite on comment"was just plain stupid
there are only two types of lite ons that are even worth a crap,so why do you all think they are so special??I guess if someone tells you to jump of the empire state building you would....

Your comment was just brilliant. If only 2 versions of Lite-on are worth a shit, then buy one of them. I use clone cd with my Lite-on and have made a perfect copy every time I've used it. No special instructions. just put in the cd and hit copy.

Angry Its my Hardware

Found out that my Cd-writer is at fault I think, it doesnt support any of the latest standards. Teac 540e. Will having a writer that supports buffer underrun and streamless data mode help??

Who can recommend a goody CDRW that doesnt cost the earth.

Has anyone used the new type of DVD rw and Cdrw are they any good ??

Thanks for all your help in advice.
