mmmm Squizzle i find it very hard to believe u copied San Andreas using Nero because its......impossible. And suggesting DVD movie decoders to get around game protections shows a total ignorance of the topic. Im not trying to be mean but theres thousands of people that would use that advice and waste hours of time and $$$ worth of blank discs. It would be better for u to point people in the right direction on another page or site than to guess and mislead people.

ok dude whatever, tell that to my backup copy of the game.
I haven't actually tried it out, so I don't know if it works. But I'm not lying, I do have a copy and I did make it with Nero just doing an on the fly disc copy. I have AnyDVD running in the background always, but I'm unsure if that made a difference.
Also, there's no authentication code to enter in so that leads me to believe they're not extremely worried about piracy.

I was using a version earlier for Aray Scanner. I did a 1:1 copy, never installed it to see if it actually works. I don't have Alcohol installed on my PC at all. So basically what I'm saying is that I don't know if the copy actually works, but I was able to make it.

Squizzle dude, a 1:1 copy is a working backup. I understand you used Nero to burn something, but a working 1:1 copy? You have made a working 1:1 coffee cup coaster.Why dont you just try the friggin thing in your machine? Also,Just cause it dont have an authentication key doesnt mean they dont care about protecting it. Thats why they pay the securom people. Keys are a basic protection that is easily defeated so they dont bother much with it anymore.But anyway i'll look you up when i need to burn a movie with AnyDVD.

naw squize, i meant no disrespect man .i was actually hoping that when you tried it that it worked. it's just that burning it simply with Nero sounded too good to be true man! and made me excited to tell ya the truth. but, i also knew from much experience burning games that it was a bunch of pipe dreams ,lol anyways this is about getting andreas backed up with a 1:1 so lets get back on key here and get-r-done, keep tryin guys we will figure this out man !

Ok I backed up San Andreas and made an ISO image. IF I use A120 and load that image on the virtual drive, I can install and play the game just fine. If I try to use A120 to burn that image to a DVD its gives an error right before it starts the burn process. Anyone have any ideas?
thanks!

Yo Peeple, I have burnt 3 Securom 7 DVD's (San Andreas,Boiling Point,And Project Snowblind) succesfully using the Blindwite tweaker/
Blindwite method. You also need to download a Bwa file from the internet as most of us peasants cant create an accurate DVD BWA file.
I installed first time from the backup ( without anything running in the background) and it works perfectly.
Gamer, Alcohol can only burn San Andreas as a mds file with rmps enabled.

I installed it and cracked it, then I played it over the course of about 2 weeks, and after about seven missions (right after I droped Denise off at her house after our first date) the video stopped working! The sound worked fine tho (I can hear people talking but the screen goes blank!)
IM SO FRUSTERATED!!! What can I try? THANX!!!

Yo Sam San Andreas has bugs. Download the update and also update ur video drivers. When u say u cracked it i assume u mean that u made a legal backup of ur original purchased disc...........
