I see your listings of 2 sheep burners. I was wondering how i can figure out what burner i had to see if it is a 2 sheep burner. I just used alc 120% for battlefield 1942 and road to rome . They all use safe disk and i followed the guide for burning it but when i go to load the game it does not load. Im assuming maybe its because of my burner .
Right click My Computer>Properties>Hardware tab folder>device manager>click the + beside DVD\CD-ROM. Shoey
You're a proud owner of a "1 sheep burner m8". Consider a Plextor Premium (52\32\52x) cd burner or a Plextor PX-708A dvd burner= "2 sheepers". If you can't afford the Plex dvd burner then grab a LiteOn LDW-811S, 411S or 401S. Shoey
Ok well i have successfully burned copys of battlefield 1942 and battlefield road to rome... they play and install great.... and i did Return of the king also which has safe disk also! used 120% alch ...so i guess these work fine i take it
As a test, uninstall Alcohol 120% and reboot your pc. I'll bet the backups won't launch from your dvd\cd-rom m8. Uninstall BlindWrite too (if applicable). Shoey
ill have to try that. But if i need alcohol 120% on my my computer thats not a biggie i dont think ??
This is the exact reason why many purchase a "2 sheep burner" so they don't need software (of any kind) to play the pc\audio protected backups. I have 3 pc's in my home and it's much easier for me to make a perfect backup" so I don't have to install additional software to play the backup.

Ok I am going to sound dumb. What exactly do you mean by [bold]one sheep[/bold] and [bold]two sheep[/bold] burners?
i got a rough idea but hopefully he can answer that better for u...i just know that a 2 sheep burner has something built into it so you can burn perfect back ups where u dont need a program to view your burnable copys.
Very good question m8 and here's a short and simple answer. 1) 1 sheep burners write regular bit patterns almost correctly. 2) 2 sheep burners write regular bit patterns correctly. 3) All burners(cdrw) write EFM encoding (eight to fourteen bit modulation) Shoey __X_X_X_X_X_[small]Certified Computer Technician http://www.afterdawn.com/general/legal.cfm Mobo: MSI KT4VL-6712 CPU: AthlonXP Barton 2500+ Ram: 512 SD-DDR (PC-2700) nVidia GeForce4 MX440-8x Maxtor ATA\133 80 gig hd DVD-ROM: LiteOn LTD 165H DVDRW: LiteOn LDW-411S(4[/small]
