I tried both Shoey's tutorial for backing up secuROM 4.48. blah blah. and tryed mounting the ccd image with Daemon tools. and everything I tried it says "please insert disc labled 'EXPANSION'"
I have a Sony DRU-700a dual layer dvd/ cd burner
the LoD expansion uses secuROM 4.47.00.0039 btw.
its strange that Diablo 2 was so easy to back up, and this expansion pack is such a bitch.
get Alcohol 120% and clonecd. make an image with clone cd using the "Copy Protected Game" feature. inclued the "make a cue sheet". after making an image of the disc, load it up in a virtual drive of Alcohol 120%. then just run it from there. u can also use Nero to burn the image using the cue sheet and that works too. this is exactly wut i did to coy sims 2, diablo 2 exp, age of mythology, etc. they all work :-P. hope this helps :D
This is why I love my Plex P. It does Securom like a charm w/ just a couple clicks, but heres another way to make a backup of ur game, is to use CLoneCD w/ the twinpeak method go here for a tut. http://forums.makeabackup.com/viewtopic.php?t=741 I think this will help you to. :) good luck

trick is to install it from the same virtual drive your gonna be running it from, as long as you do that it works like a charm. I used Alcohol 120% to make the images and Daemon Tools to mount them. I've done it on 3 machines now and it always works, I just always leave Daemon Tools with a virtual drive and LOD in it, so it doesn't get complicated.
