120% is usually very reliable. Without looking at the error log, chances are you may have burned at too high a speed. Drop the burn speed to 8X or even 4X speed, and use good quality media(Taiyo yuden/Verbatim/Tdk etc)

If this doesn't fix the problem, post the error log.

Cheers.

I actually forgot to mention that you should not multitask while processing your backups. Good luck.

Just for arguments sake, put the original Game DVD into your drive(cancel startup) and open 120%, select Image making wizard, and see if you can select datatype.

I'm stumped.......... If it's a pc game, I can select datatype, if it's a Ps2 game then I don't get to select at this point.

Your correct Hursty, my mistake. I checked my game disk capacity, it's under 700mb :P

@Phil12345, choose copy wizard, and then select the datatype. Securom new 4/5/7.
