    Your drive may not be capable of extracting it or you're trying to extract too fast. What make/model drive are you using and what speed are you extracting at?

    If your drives won't cooperate you can download premade BWA files. What game/protection are you trying to back up?

    Your drive may or may not be able to make a working copy of SecuROM 5 but we can still give it a shot. Here's a link to a BWA for CS Condition Zero:

    http://www.makeabackup.com/modules.php?name=Downloads&d_op=getit&lid=168

    Once you have it downloaded you can use it through BW Tweaker by clicking the "Browse" button under the Topology tab then selecting the BWA you just downloaded :)

    i already made a working copy from clonecd. i just wanted to see if blindwrite is working because clonecd doesnt burn all protections.

    what do the bwa files do and why do i have to download them.

    A BWA file is basically the information that you get when you extract the topology. Some drives are much better at it than others so the guys that know their stuff and have good drives will make a top notch BWA and make it available for everyone to use :)
