OK i worked that out by myself but i am still confused on how to Hide the CD-R. I followed the instructions Programs>Slysoft>CloneCD>and CloneCD Tray comes up but when i click on it nothing happens.
I would appreciate it if anyone could help me with this problem, thanks.

"Hide CDR" works in the background so there's nothing to see really.

Sorry about that i realise my question wasn't really clear enough. I am having the same problem as xlaxmat, i backed up Sims 2 with CloneCD but when i try to play it it asks that i insert the correct disk. I understand that to overcome this i need to 'HideCD-R' like you said but i can't find it. The CloneCD Tray is there but when i click on CloneCD Tray nothing happens and if i rightclick on it the 'HideCD-R' option is not available either.
Thanks again.

What other versions of CloneCD offer the "Hide CD-R Media" feature? By the way Nephilim my DVD burner is a TOSHIBA ODD-DVD SD-R6252, Thanks.

Always use the latest version of CloneCD simply because games are blacklisted. This basically means if "hide cd-r' is enabled, some games won't launch. The newest CloneCD should launch The Sims 2, Madden NFL 2005 with "hide cd-r" enabled :)

We're all here on our own free time and none of us get paid to be here so if you get lost in the mix don't get pissy about it. If you're still needing help then just ask again.

I have a question, I enable the HIDE-CDR function on the CloneCd and then when i try to put the disk in...it stays at that first screen and then i eject the disk and it says "Detected CD/DVD emulator software, please close and re insert" Is there something else I can do.

I had the same problem, the reason it wasn't working for me was because i had not yet actually opened CloneCD. Once i'd done that and selected Hide CD-R Media, the game played without the message 'CD/DVD emulation detected......'

Does all this work for the DVD version for Sims 2? I am trying to burn the DVD version for back-up and I don't see where I can select a protection profile or set the read speed. All I can select is a DVD profile. BTW I am using the latest version of CloneCD.

You might want to give Alcohol 120% or BlindWrite a try.

I'm not aware of anything you can do short of a complete uninstall of CloneCD. I had to.

Hello, I am also new to this and have a similar problem. I downloaded the sims 2 and recieved 4 bin/cue files. I then burned the images using Nero burn on 4 cds. Installation seemed to go smoothly, but I have the same "please reinsert disc, press ok and restart" message when trying to load the game. I am unsure of what to do at this point and any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
I had the same exact problem, then I deleted everything, tried install again, now cd1 w/n install more than 17% of tsdata/res/sound/voice5.package.
WTF I do???

One thing we all must remember is these new safedisc protections eg 3.20.022 whether CD or DVD are extremely hardware dependant. Not just on burner+sheep+EFM capability but CPU, RAM and northbridge chipsets configuration/capability as well. Virtual drives will always be a winning second choice, but as for 1:1 CD/DVD copys, keeping hardware right up to date as expensive as that is will always overcome. (Blindwrite+Blindwrite tweaker is another good choice to back up Sims 2 on DVD. Alcohol all the way on CD)
