I have a disc that was handled by a little one & it now appears to have a few minor scratches. Normally I wouldn't be too concerned with it, but this is a rare imported CD that I got & I don't want to have to buy it again. It seems to have affect playback a little & skips at one point. Not always, but I also occasionally get a 'no disc' error message in the player when inserted. I'm gonna try to back it up to a CDR, but if that doesn't work, I was thinking of getting one of these disc repair kits. Do they really work? If so, which one is recommended?
Try copying the disc first. If that fails then make an image of it by using programs such as alcohol 120%, nero or win image. If that doesn't work then buy a disc repair kit or take it to a specialist.
i have the dr. skipper, thinks thats what it called (its green and black) when i first got it, it worked beautifully, i loved it but when i was talking to a worker at a game store he said that its bad for the cd. but i think if u r going to clean it and burn it i would do it, price is about $20
i've never had a problem w/ it myself, but everyone who i talk 2 who works in a game store go against it (talked to about 3 or 4 ppl about it)
i didn't know they did that, that's the store where i always go, there the one's who told me not to use the dr.skipper, that's y they told me it's bad so that i will pay them to do it
