Hi, I am trying to make a copy of age of empires II. I have used the guide provided here with alcohol 120. I determined that the protection is safedisc V1 using clony xxl. Then, I set the data type to safedisc on alcohol and attempted to write the cd to an image file. However, when attempting to write the image, it gave me this error and froze the write process: ####################### Dumping/Recording Progress Log ####################### 22:58:52 Processor info: AMD Athlon(tm) 64 Processor 3400+ (2202MHz) 22:58:53 Disc dumping: (E SONY DVD-ROM DDU1613(0:1) 22:58:53 Reading Mode: RAW Mode , Fast skip error blocks 22:58:53 Source Info: Session: 1, Track: 2, Length: 585.1 MB / 066:33:72 22:58:53 Writing image file: C:\Documents and Settings\Neal\My Documents\Alcohol 120%\AOE2.mdf 22:59:03 Disc read error at: 841 22:59:09 Disc read error at: 844 22:59:16 C:\Documents and Settings\Neal\My Documents\Alcohol 120%\AOE2.mds: Image file writing aborted! 22:59:16 Disc dumping aborted! ############################################################################## Thank you for your help Neal
Thanks for your help. I tried reducing the speed to 4X but to no avail. I get the same error message Any other ideas?
The Disc read error's are part of the Safedisc protection, they will end around 10,000 or so. Just let Alcohol do its thing and you should be all fine. BTW it might take a while so just be patient.
