SafeDisk 2.7 override?

OK, I'm trying to back up Mafia now that I found it (Thank God). I made ISOs for the three disks. Ive mounted the image and ran Clony XXL to determine the protection. It said the protection was Safedisk 2.7. Can someone please tell me how, or where I can find out what to do to override this protection. I have Alcohol 120, Daemon Tools and Nero. How do I get passed this protection?

I thought so too, but when I tried burning with Alcohol it didn't work (All programs just opened up to black windows then closed). When you say that alcohol should work do you mean that it should automatically override when I burn, or that I have to do somethign specific in alcohol? Do I have to change anything in alcohol to get it to override, someone was saying somethin about emulation (maybe that was just cd clone). Thanks.

using the 'safedisc' type selection in alcohol might help

I'm not quite sure what option you're referring to. Are you talking about the "BAD Sectors Emulation" under emulation options? If not could you please tell me where to get to this option?

Ah, I think I see it now. When doing burning image to disk it says datatype. However, when I click on safedisk 2 it says my recorder is unable to create 1:1 copies with this datatype. I've already tried burning with the BAD Sectors emulation which says it's for bruners that can't make 1:1 copes and want to override safedisk. So it looks like I'm screwed Any thoughts? Help is greatly apreciated!

@ Sombre. I to had some probs making a backup of mafia. @ 1st i used clone cd v4.1.0.1 and clonyXXL v2.006. I was able to copy all 3 disks perfectly according to clone and the log but every time i tried to install i got stuck on disk 2. I tried Alcohol but to no avail either. In the end i made a 1.1 backup (no need for nocd crack). How your probarly wondering and here it is. I used clonecd V4.1.0.1 and clonyXXL V2.0.0.6 like the 1st time and the only different thing i did (and i should of done this from the start i know,i kind of got stuck in a cycle ) was to scan each disk with ClonyXXL and not use the same profile for all 3 disks. In other words scan disk 1 with clonyXXL and burn with clonecd using the profile clonyXXL made, Scan disk2 with clonyXXL and burn with clonecd using the new profile clonyXXL made and then scan disk3 and burn again with clonecd. Also when i used clonyXXL V2.0.0.6 if i remember correctly the safe disk protection had been tweaked compared to lower versions. So my guess is the protection on all 3 disks is in some way different. (I cant remember what protection was on all 3 disks). Also if you want to read up on more stuff to do with backing up Mafia you could have a look @ the different threads including one i started wich also comes with a link to download the best version of clonyXXL V2.0.0.6 as there are more than one V2.0.0.6 of clonyXXL out there. You will see what i mean if you pay the thread a visit and when i tried to back Mafia up with the not so good clonyXXL V2.0.0.6 it diddnt work.
Hope this info helps you to backup a great game
