All backup software works on the same principals, calling one a mimick is a bold statement, if your a loyalist to CCD, more power to you, I'm a loyalist to Alcohol, and when I'm backing up my starforce protected games, without disabling my secondary IDE, and premastering .bin .cue and .iso's, I'll think of you :) CCD wasnt capable of Alcohols performance until 5.0.0.0 beta and now 5.0.2.2 anyway. I'm not knocking elby/slysoft, I think ANY and Clone DVD are the best apps ever made.
CloneCD not capable of Alcohol 120% performance until 5.0 Beta? My Plex Premium easily defeated Safedisc 3.x using CloneCD 4.x versions! My backups of The Sims 2 and Madden NFL 2005 with my Litey DVD 411S play just fine using the latest CloneCD 5.x with "hide cd=r" enabled :)A little history lesson about CloneCD. CloneCD was the 1st program to allow RAO DAO 96\16 write mode, obviously hardware dependent if that burner was or is capable of RAO DAO 96\16 sub-q write mode. I can play my Starforce backups using emulation to m8 :)

I am new here and I have a question. I purchaced Colin McRae Rally 2005 a while ago and I tried to make a backup in vain. A-ray scanner reports that the dvd protection is starforce. I made a 1-1 copy (with blindwrite 5 (automatic profile) and I mounted the resulting image with Daemon Tools. When I ran the game it started checking the dvd image but stopped after 1 minute to tell me that the game cd-key didn't correspond with the dvd inserted. The key is from the original (I repeat it) game. What should I do? The game dvd has started showing many scratches...

I don't personally know of a way to get around StarForce - it's one of, if not the, toughest protection out there.
Maybe Shoey can give us some insight :)

Read the forum rules. You multiposted a guide for cracking a game right after I just warned another member for discussing cracks!
Consider yourself warned.

camstuf that not to be discussed piece you added to your sims 2 backup is the problem it disables the build mode you need to replace it with the orignal file(you did backup the orignal didn't you) then try loading the game with your backup of cd1 if that don't work try mounting an image of cd1 in a virtual drive
p.s. nephilim like your bye bye animation

meta1,
I've already warned two people in this thread about discussing cracks!
You're not special so don't do it again.

Ok, so everyone says that CloneCD works, but I keep getting the "please insert cd into cd rom and click ok" error, or something like that in any case. People say it should work, and I have a rather nice burning rom, that I know is capable of burning the cd if it can be done, but I guess I have the wrong setting. Could someone help me there? What write mode should I use? Should I preform laser power calibration? Do I allow "Amplify Weak Sectors"? And aside from buffer underrun protection, that's all I have to chose from. Am I missing any options that I should have?

Can someone please give me a step by step with as much detail as possible how to make a "back-up" of Sims 2?
This is the situation. I've got the IMG, CCD, and CUE files for all 4 CDs on my hard drive and I have successfully burned them. I have also successfully installed all four of them onto a machine. The problem is that when I try to play the game, CD1 (ie the PLAY CD) doesn't read. The little SIMS2 splash screen comes up but the game never starts.
I used Alcohol 120% to burn the CDs and I have unchecked all the emulation items as indicated in many posts. I burned the disks as SafeDisc 2/3 at 8x speed. Several people have said to do it at 4x speed but I don't have the option to go any slower than 8x.
It's extremely frustrating because I know that I have everything I need for it to work, but some step is eluding me. If anyone has had a similar problem and can post or private message me the solution it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
