    I want to copy a game CD so my grandson can save the original and use the copy to actually play the game. He is a great kid, but he is only 7 and still gets scratches on the CDs. He is learning! Anyway, I tried to copy the CD using Nero Burning Rom 6.6.0.8 and got an error message that says: Unrecoverable read error at 00:15:41

    Is this a form of copyright protection or is something wrong with the CD? This is probably a dumb question but I don't know what the error message means. I don't want to do anything illegal but as I understand the copyright law a person is entitled to make one backup copy of a CD for their own personal use. I'm not giving this CD to anyone else!

    I have Nero 6 Ultra Suite. I have Windows XP. I am trying to make a working copy of Need For Speed:High Stakes. Is there a way to make a CD that will work to run the game?

    Thank you for your help
    Bonnie
