Default I can't make an Iso!

I've been trying forever now to make game X into an iso file on my pc, but whateverr program I use, whether its Isobuster, Alcohol 120 or CdRWin, I can't get it to read. All of these programs keep saying that there is a track error at sector X and it continues on and on.

I've also tried using Isobuster to extract the files direclty from the cd, burning them onto a cd r and then making an Iso of that. While that method works, the Iso i get is either corrupted or usless. Help!

When you use alcohol 120%, did you make sure the "ignore read/write errors" box was ticked on?



And yeah, copying files and burning them to a new CD seldom works these days, most every CD or DVD, has a lead-in track and a lead-out track, and it is impossible to copy these as they are only seen by the laser hardware. thus the entire first purpose of CD image files

Yeah the ignore read/write errors was on. The problem is is that every single sector is a read/write error. I did a little investigating of both the cd's that I can't copy. Both have a file called "secdrv.sys" and it doens't let me copy the cd onto my hd. I'm not even trying to make a copy of it; I just want an iso of it.

That IS copying. The company who made the CD obviously doesn't want you to copy it, Lol. All I can tell you is to use DVD Decryper. I heard that you can use that with games, but I'm not totally sure. = /

Independent thinking is hard work and not worth the time.

True beauty lies within. It's why so many people are downright ugly.
