    I don't know if anyone else has done this yet, but from the forums i've looked at, no one has seemed to. I was mucking around with it trying to get my backup to work in case i screwed up original and actually got the backup working. I made an image using Alcohol 120% version 1.9.2 build 1705 on Safedisc 2/3, slowest speed possible and that went pretty fine it was getting the cd after it was burnt to work that was the problem. What i did was mount the image using Daemon Tools 3.47 and enable Safedisc emualtion. I then opened CloneCd 5.1.0.0 and copied cd on the fly using protected game cd on slowest settings. Once i'd burnt the disk i put it in and the Sims 2 University logo came up but then an error came up saying that there had been an internal error in the Sims2EP1.exe .I figured this must have been because of the Safedisc 4.00.001 protection that has been installed on the Sims2EP1.exe (you'll see this if you scan the disc using A-Ray Scanner). All i did then was turn on Hide CDR Media on CloneCd and it worked with no problems at all :D. Tell me if anyone has success or not using this same process.

    I got it to back up and play no problem, just by using Clone CD 5.1.0.0, using read to image then write from image on basic game cd setting. I wrote at 4X. Of course it needs "Hide CDR Media" to be ticked in the clone cd tray when playing.

    Okay, Ive made a copy of cd1 with CloneCD v5.1.0.0 but when the game begins to start I get a microsoft error. I used the cd to install and it worked just fine but not to play. What can I do.
