It would be illegal for anyone to give you their serial number. If you made a legitimate purcahse then you can contact 321 Studios and they'll supply you with the unlock codes

That's the really neat thing about buying them, they give you a serial # when you do.

BW5/PX-708A backup works nicely. Same settings as with the Premium posted earlier.

I just bought -Medal of Honor Breakthrough- and it has a safedisc2.90 protection on it right... right, anyway's it copied all smooth and all but when I pop the backup in it just stay's on the Medal of Honor Breakthrough logo and that's it, what's the deal!
I even tried copying with BW5 and it stoped about a minute into writing and her cute voice said copying not complete (well close enough to what she said) so I'm stumped once again. any help once again please.

ok some weird shit is going on here, when I tried to copy Medal of Honor Breakthrough with AL120% didn't work, tried with BW5 it didn't work but tried CopytoDVD and it worked, I have a total of 6 coasters just to copy this game not to mention other coaster's with another game. Getting tired of this =S

Hiya,
What were the write speeds you used? The slower the burn, the better the chance the copy will work. I usually burn at 4X.

with AL120 the burn speed was 8x but with BW5 and CopytoDVD there were no speed options, I geting coaster's like crazy. It seems like a hit and miss all 3 programs.
These games seem to have different program preference when it comes to backing up them up
Do you use one program or various ones?

CopyToDVD does have speed ajustments. Open the suite and choose tools, then settings, then CopyToDVD settings, then writing devices. Look to the bottom left and you'll see the speed adjustments for both CD and DVD.
Now for Blind Write. Open CopyToDVD, choose copy, then copy music data and games, then options, settings, general, if you look just below engine, you'll see a speed ajustment.
If you rather use Blind write as a standalone application, then you can go to C:\programfiles\vso\blindwrite5\BW right click on BW and choose create a shortcut and the paste the shortcut onto your desktop and you're done. No big deal just speeds things up a little.

Hey buddy,
I highly recommend getting BlindWrite5 Tweaker. It's the coolest little app ever that lets you adjust and tweak every setting before you open BW5 itself. You can get it here:
http://www.aray-software.com/
For doing SafeDisc using Tweaker, in the "Basic Settings" tab set the write speed to 4X, you can leave the read speed set to "Adaptive" since SafeDisc can be read fast.
Now in the "Topology" tab under "Writing Topology" select "Do Not Write Topology" since SafeDisc doesn't require it. You can ignore the "Advanced Settings" tab. Now click the "Run BlindWrite" button and BW5 will launch.
I think most of your troubles are stemming from the drive you're using. The newer protections damn near require a "2-sheep" burner which is one that can write EFM correctly (essential to backing up protections). Unfortunately, your A07 isn't a 2-sheep.

I was reading this thread last week and downloaded a trial copy of BlindWrite 5.0. Sure enough, it made a backup copy of Ghost Recon Gold and Battlefield Vietnam. I put the copies in the drive to see if they would run and they did, bringing up the install/and other options. I thought everything was set until I went to play Ghost Recon a couple of nights ago and when I inserted the copied disk to play the game, all I got was a small square in the middle of the screen. The game would not load, although it did when I replaced the copy with the original in the CD drive.
Thanks for your help ahead of time! You guys sound really sharp and are great the way you help each other!

Hi Gary,
What make/model burner are you using for your backups?
Subpar backups will almost always install but the real test comes when you go to actually play the game and the copy protection kicks in :)

Whoa.... I didnt expect to find this thread here heehee
===
If you need to burn a SafeDisc2/3 protected game the major consideration is the drive doing the copy; certain drives have certain characteristics that give them an easier time to perform SafeDisc2 copies than others. Such drives are described as being 2-sheep burners. Drives not quite up to the task (however capable of), are described as 1-sheep burners and heaven forbid, 0-sheep burners. So the first thing you need to do is to find out what make/model your burner is and if it is a 2-sheep burner or not. To determine your make and model of your optical drives; if you happen to have Nero Infotools installed, start it up and under the Drive tab, it will list all the relevant specifications and capabilities of your burner. The actual name of your burner is listed in the drop-down box at the top (those numbers before the name of your burner are important too!). You can get InfoTools from http://www.cd-rw.org/software/cdr_software/cdr_tools/nero_info_tool.cfm Once you have determined tha name of the burner, head on over to http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/45121 to see if that burner is listed there or not. If it is listed there, it is a 2-sheep burner; if it is not listed there it is not neccesarily a 2-sheep burner but highly unlikely. Now if you have a 2-sheep burner head on over to http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/23699 to find out how to copy a SafeDisc2 protected game. If you are running a 1-sheeper than visit http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/36444 for the appropriate guide.

Hell I dont think there is even a game that has pre-installation checks -- which is unfortunate

It says Generic in the Nero Info Toolkit. Before the drive letter it has [0:1]. The box it came in says "MagicSpin" but I can find nothing else on the make or the company. It is an 8x Dual Format DVD +_RW/+_R

Which probably is an indication that the drive isnt good enough to handle SafeDisc2/3 :)

TAKE IT BACK! Even among name brandS there are flawed drives but if the box says spin magic or makes any other unachievable promises RUN AWAY.

Sleep refreshes! Or sleep is for the weak. I used to think that way and igored my needs and stayed awake for two days or more at a time. trust me sleep is a gift. I now sleep about 4 hours a night and I envy those who get more.
We are off topic.
