try Cloney XL is a good one to try - it will tell you want type of protection the D is using as well.

umm, check clone for some error settings and get it to ignor them, or *try* using cdrwin koz u can ignor them on that, maybe prassi primo can do them, not sure, i used clone cd to back up my m8s original "the sims" games for him just the other day and it was the first time i used clone this year so i'm not sure about its setttings m8
cheers i will try both
wot i used to do m8, was get copy protection detecter, this tells you wot protection is on the disc, then it passes the appropriate settings needed onto clone cd which you can open from within the program.
but ive not used it for a while so dont know if the newer protections are supported by the program
you can get it here anyway, give it a try

www.cdmediaworld.com has a load of info on protections i think, have a quick look there
clone ultimately can copy all protected cd,s if used corectly

Except for Disc's using the TAGES copy protection - ite very new so dont worry yet.
here is some info from Toms Hardware
"TAGES can be implemented at various stages of software development, and its anti-copy functions can be customized to meet the specific needs of developers and publishers. It enables the publisher to choose how the protection affects unauthorized copies, from causing slight modifications to completely blocking the functioning of the software. TAGES is also completely transparent to the end user and does not require any specific set-up or online transaction prior to launching the software.
TAGES uses new encryption and authentication technologies that are compatible with standard multimedia PC computers and drives. To date, very little is known about this copy protection technology, and it has appeared on only one title of which we are aware. What we do know at the time of this article is that, to the best of our knowledge, no one has been able to figure out how to make a back up of a disc protected with TAGES. For users wanting to make a back up copy of a disc using the TAGES technology, this isn't welcome news"

try using old version of clone 3.412 is the best turn off the errors aslo it make a differnt what burner you have the liton burner will copy must games the plextor arent as good,i have good luck with acer burner it all to do with what your burner call read and what mode it can copy it need to be able to burn in raw data mode ,dont use clone ver 4 it usless,aslo burn by making a image not fly and read from the burner not the cd rom or dvd ok hope this works for your game but,not all games can be crack this way
thanks
can clone cd handle safedisk 2, and is there any that can defeat the new F.A.D.E yet
CloneCD can copy SafeDisc 2 as long as your burner can do it properly (some can copy it no probs, some can copy it and then it can only be used on that burner and some won't do it at all; liteon burners can do it no probs).
FADE, don't think so.
Isnt FADE - what they supposedly used on Operation Flashpoint ? I thought it was a bit of an urban legend. I backed up my copy and it didnt appear to make any difference as I played the game.

I read that Operation Flashpoint (release) was not FADE protected; Version 1.10 and up are protected with FADE.

Get yourselves a Liteon drive, copies safedisk 2 no worries and there cheap £40 ish for a 32 speed jobie!
