Well I have tried again and no success. Took the same copy and tried on my dell Dimension 8400 and it went very smooth with no problems. As far as the ribbon I tried that right away when the problem started happening and that's what led me to believe it was the drive so I replaced for no reason. The only thing that I can think of is my array of discs. The read error was accompanied by error log and it stated in the log that array had some issue involved, but it works fine when copying original discs and other back up's. I don't know for sure, but I do know that the PC has no issues reading from original discs, only back up's and it's hit and miss, in other words, some back up's I can copy and some I cannot. Just wierd that the same disc that won't work in one machine will work in another as well as friends machines. Some of these titles I have just added and others were less than 10 months ago. I even watched the progress to see if maybe it slowed down at the particular spot on the PC that worked and no it didn't, but the PC that didn't work sounded like the drive cut off after hitting 82% and I then no it's not going to work. By the way I thought maybe a bad drive that should be RMA back. Nope the secondary drive produced the same error. I'm not sure if the power supply is an issue because it does work on originals 100% of the time and you would think that encrypted disc would put more strain than a back up. This is WIERD to me and equally frustrating! My power supply is an ULTRA X connect 450 or 550 watt
Do you think it could be MB issue with the IDE port? It still wouldnt make sense as to why it only happens with back up's. I'm baffled at this point!
