I've copied many dvds without problems. Copyright protection is not the problem. for some reason I keep getting an error message when I try copying one specific DVD. It says Error reading Data. Reading Disc Failed Can't figure it out. Here's my log: Windows XP 5.1 IA32 WinAspi: - ahead WinASPI: File 'C:\Program Files\Ahead\nero\Wnaspi32.dll': Ver=2.0.1.74, size=164112 bytes, created 7/12/2006 5:58:31 AM NT-SPTI used Nero Version: 6.6.1.6 Internal Version: 6, 6, 1, 6 (Nero Express) Recorder: <HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GSA-H10N>Version: JL10 - HA 1 TA 2 - 6.6.1.6 Adapter driver: <USB 2.0> HA 1 Drive buffer : 2048kB Bus Type : set to ATAPI (3) -> ATAPI, detected: ?

KEY MEDIUM ERROR is usually an indication that your burner is not fond of the media you're trying to feed it. Sometimes this can be corrected by a firmware update, or by switching to a different type of blank media. What movie are you trying to copy? What process are you using to rip?
the movie is Disney's Enchanted. I use the Nero software for copying and its worked many times before. I only have one DVD drive. So I haven't put any blank DVDs in yet. I'm getting the error at the point when it's saving the DVD image onto my hardrive.
Enchanted heavily encrypted. Please try the following http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/622748
Nero does not remove copy protection. It is capable of making a 1:1 copy of a non-protected movie. Use the link iluvendo gave to find a good program to remove copy protection and rip the movie.
