    1.Get yourselves a few CD-RWs
    2.Burn your untested software onto a CD-RW
    3.If it works use the same method to burn to CD-R
    4.If it doesnt, wipe the CD-RW and start again

    I'm no expert so if there is a problem with this method let me know :)

    I have a better solution m8.
    1) Read the image to your hd
    2) Install Daemon Tools (freebie)
    3) Mount the image and play using a virtual stealth drive.

    For "data", use CDMage(freebie) and drag-n-drop the image in the upper left dialog box. look to the right and presto! I see the directory of the entire contents of the cd.

    After so many formats the cdrw will encounter bad sectors. It is recommended to format a cdrw 3x then toss in da trash can= too much money. I like my method m8, you?

    only use 3 times??? jeez..i thought u could wipe and use at least tens of times..u live and learn :(

    by the way, do i have use Daemon tools to mount a cd, or will the virtual drives with Alcohol 120% do the same job?

    Cheers

    A) Yes although Alcohol 120% cost some dough, Daemon Tools= [bold] freebie [/bold]

    Ermm.... slightly off topic, does ClonyXXL read Deamon drives bcause I cant seem to get it to read an Alcohol Drive (or ParagonCD Emulator drive either).

    ClonyXXL 2.0.1.5 can read my Alcohol 120% virtual stealth drives (image mounted) just fine m8. Daemon Tools, I dunno as it should...

    Are there any settings i need to be aware of to get ClonyXXL to read my virtual (Alcohol) drive? Because when i go to ClonyXXL cd setup it always says I have more drive letters than drive (the last drive is the Alcohol drive which isnt detected)

    Open ClonyXXL>Options\Tools>CD-Rom Setup>You should see all your drives listed. Click "next" to scan all drives then exit ClonyXXL then open and scan 1 o your virtual stealth drives (with mounted image). Using ASPI Layer 4.6?
