need help quick! cdr question urgent. thanks ^_^

[JacobM5727]

well i was making backup cds of my pc games. i copied a game called zeus, with the cdr-w installed in this computer (its the only cdrom is has)

anyway, everything went fine but when i opened the game to test it, it got to the main screen with the options play and quit, i clicked play and nothing happened, it just closed. i tried on two computers and the cd doesnt work on either. any ideas? oh yeah i made the cd with adaptec easy cd creater 4- copy cd program. i dont want to use another cdr is i can do something with this cd. thanks

Well, I think there could be possibly two reasons for that...

1) It was a bad burn

2) The game is copy protected

Another thing I'd like to add is that, Adaptec EZCD isn't a very good burning program for burning protected CD's because it lacks burning options.

Yea i think that programs' pretty bad
I think it might have just been the burn, well at least i hope so. I like that game.

Try it again. I've had bad luck with the NFS series of games. They don't copy because of the protection http://www.sysopt.com/forum/frown.gif

is there a program that will record it for sure?

CloneCD (http://www.elaborate-bytes.com) If it supports your burner should burn it.

hmm well im back home away from the cdrw. is there anything i can do like a patch or something, that will let me play the game? all the files are there it just isnt working. it installs just fine, all the demos work, but the game itself does not. any ideas?
