You are correct in saying so... BIN files can be error checked via CDMage however ISOs cannot (note that my experience in using CDMage with ISOs is limited to Mode1/2048 ISOs -- it may scan other types of ISOs but im not sure)

Hey, all the bin files cant be seen with cdmage. thats why i chnaged to iso and now they can be seen by cdmage. the "Scan for curruptions" button or link is not clickable. but the other buttons are. so witht he Bin files it wont load unto the cdmage window. could my problem be that my BIN files have an extension "EXE" (CD1.BIN.EXE) at the end??
thnx

I got the same error.... Cyclic dadada...
But it does not ask me to Retry, Abort or Ignore... it just closes the setup and asks me if I want to remove my saved games.
Any clue of what is this about? I tried to pass my CD (CD2) content to my harddrive but get the same error when I try to copy it.
The prob is with the file maps.SM0.
Can someone tell me where to download this file or at least somewhere to find the directory structure of the game so I can try to install it manually ?
Thanks !

I had the same problem with CD 2 on the map file. I basically ignored it and the result was that one of the maps, I believe the upper CIA levels, was corrupt. To rectify this problem, I just downloaded full, completed saved game, skipped the corrupt level and had no problems after that.

I can almost gurantee your anything short of a GeForce3 is gonna choke with SplinterCell. The 512MB may help bit still... Splinter Cell is a rough game as far as offical requirements and "effective requirements" go.
=====
To determine your system specs; goto Start --> Run, Type dxdiag and click OK. Your CPU (processor), Memory and DirectX version is listed on the System tab. Your video card specifcations can be found under the Display tab under Name and Chip Type. Your soundcard is listed under the Sound tab in the Name field.

NewsBin Pro (for cable, dsl). You download much faster using this program, even on ole' lamo 56k dial-up! Take Preators advice and definatly upgrade your video card (nVidia Geforce). To those who have made posts to this thread: even though you can download pc game in file formats such as iso, bin&cue, this is no assurance that the file you're downlod is a "true image" of that pc game. People who share pc games on p2p clients (most of them) can't make a true backup so they "modify" the image by replacing the "original" game exe with a "crack no cd exe". Thus the case I recommend ya'll use CDMage and load file>explore the entire directory of the cd before you burn (or mount with a virtual stealth drive) . This way you know beforehand if you downloaded a "true" image or a "modified" (cracked) image. This can be very nerve racking for those who share SecuROM cd protected games because the image needs to be read with sub-q channel (data) and if it isn't, then chances are you're gonna encounter install\ply errors.
No special read settings when reading the image of a Safedisc 2.x pc protected game, it's getting the backup to launch. Easy way to eliminate this is to own a "special" brand burner (2 sheep\efm encoding)=burn RAW DAO=play backup in a dvd\cd-rom, not the cd burner . Some "2 sheep brand" name burners:
1) Plextor Premium (TLA#0002)<a must
2) Asus 40\48\52x
3) LiteOn 40\48\52x< preferably this model
4) Memorex 52 MAXX
5) Sony 48\52x
6) Polaroid BurnMAX 40\48\52x
Recommended dvd burners for backing up Safedisc 2.9.x& SecuROM 4.8.3&up:
1) Plextor PX-708A
2) There is NONE other (at the moment)
Shoey :)
Asus K8N nVidia nForce3 Pro 250 GB, Athlon 64 3200+, Hitachi 80 gig SATA 150, Corsair XMS 1 gig PC4000, ATI Radeon Saphire 9600 Pro (256 DDR), Windows XP Pro (64 Bit),Lite-ON SOHD 167T,, Plextor PX-712SA,BenQ 1640.

Don't use the autoinstall but press with the right button on your cd-drive then explore. Copy all the files like this. When you copy cd2 it may still show error message. If you can't press ignore then cancel and look where did the copying stopped and just skip the files. After that install it from your HD and it should. With my, it still shows error message and returns to windows but just press the Splinter from toolbar and it returns. My no-cd patch didn't work so put cd3 in drive and choose cd3 in your HD and from there cracks and the shortcut.

Yes that may be but the entire point of copying a cd for archival purposes is to make a perfect copy. Not to resort to noCDs and such.

I had CRC error with a few images i downloaded and burned with lite-on 52-32-52. I found that the problem can be fixed by lowering the write speed to 40x.
Can anyone name any good usenet servers?
