im trying to back up gta vice city, my backup copy freezes. Could this be due to poor quality of the original, like maybe a scratch. Is there any solution ( besides buying another game)

it could be the kind of disk you are putting the game on, like for alot of people memorex doesnt work for them so maybe try using a different brand.

if it copied ok,it should be fine

freezing is all the symptoms of using crap media and burning too fast

it may be but i agree with Hursty.
It is usually because of poor quality media or burning at a high speed.
Go get some quality media (TDK,Ritec,Phillips) and give it another go, and set DVD Decrypter to burn at 1x in case you didn't on the first try.
also if you burned the first one to a +R, try a -R disc this time, they work great in both my V7 and Slim PSTwo.
