damaged disk.. or deliberate bad sectors written as copyproofing. (hahaha.. I do that to people.. it's funny)
There used to be a freeware program called "unstoppable copier" (icon was a cat) which would skip bad sectors.. ok.. you get a few duff files maybe but it was free.. or alcohol120% set to straight copy with the skip errors box ticked..
everything else costs cash... takes forever.. and usually doesn't work.
The real way to deal with this.. as it's a data disk.. is to copy each file one at a time.. then you know which ones are where the disk is damaged.
yeah thought it was the disk cos i tried it with different program ,roxio creator and it stopped in the same place ,ill work something out..thanks any how mate :)
