    Hey Guyz,
    Well I downloaded this .iso file of Spearhead from ***** (its spearhead allrite..) but when I click on setup I get the following error " Installation support file could not be installed. Incorrect fuction. "
    What do you think the problem is ?

    You should'n be able to install an ISO. What did you do with it? Did you mount it? Did you extract some files from it? Did you simply doubleclick it?

    MOH is Safedisc 2.5.1 protected( a bitch) and depending upon your burner will determine whether you can really make a "true" backup. Download BlindWrite Suite 4.25

    Open BlindWrite (hard disck to rom) or the 1 on the right if you're not familiar with this program. Clcik start writing wizard, then click next and way up top make sure your burner is selected then click next. Look uptop and locate the iso (MOH) and then click next. Now in the write process make sure that ENHACE WEAK SECTORS is checked and write mode is DAO-pw.If your have more than 1 iso repeat the process. Install from your burner and see if you encounter any errors.

    Alas, BW 4.2.5 is very difficult to find. You'll find lots of 4.3 releases.

    Can you post a link for downloading, Shoey?

    Maybe you can try switching on 'BAD Sectors emulation' in Alcohol?

    I posted a link to BlindWrite 4.25. It is best to FIRST try and burn the iso to a cd-r as I recommended in my previous post. This way you have a backup of the game. Yes you can emulate the image using Alcohol120%, but do this later if the game won't install after burning to a cd-r. The objective here to to get the image on a cd-r first, then if the install encounters errors, use emulation. What brand name burner do you own and model?

    darshan ,
    After you've downloaded BolindWrite 4.25 (link provided), simply install the program. After doing so open BlindWrite and click the icon to the right. Clcick start cd writing wizard>next>next. Locate the MOA iso on your hd& click next. DON'T tick the Enhance weak sectors OR enable bwa file".Choose DAO-pw write mode(NOT DAO-pq), write at 8x and the backup should play just fine in your LG (Lucky GoldStar) without the aid of "hide cd-r" OR Alcohol. Your burner is a "2 sheep burner" (CloneCD) and can write regular bit patterns correctly which basically means you'll have NO troubles making backups of the latest Safedisc 2.8.x BUT Macrovision continually updates Safedisc (blah).

    Shoey, I managed to backup successfully Safedisc 2.5.1 simply writing RAW SAO (I have a 2-sheep burner not capable to burn RAW DAO). Since Safedisc does not hide its protection scheme on subchannel data, DAO-pw or DAO-pq is not really necessary, isn't it?

    (I post this because not all burners are capable to write subchannel data ...)

    Congrats aldaco12! Using BlindWrite 4.25 in write mode, there's no RAO DAO mode, that's what I mentioned to use DAO-pw mode(worked for me). Why BlindWrite don't offer this option is beyond me. Your LG& my Polaroid BurnMAX48x both can write in RAO DAO modes+ sub-q. Glad you backed up the game with success m8. Your real test comes backing up SecuROM 4.8.x and I'm more than confident your LG can do the job!
    SecuROM 4.8.x recent game titles: Unreal Tournament 2003, Battle Of Orien
