I believe the game is made by Electronic Arts? Most newer EA games are Safedisc cd protected m8. Search Google for a handy tool called Safedisc Analyser. Simply locate the main game exe and Safedisc Analyser will provide you with the current Safedisc version. My guess, Safedisc 2.9 or 3.1 cd protected.

Do you own a "2 sheep" burner? If so then you play the backup in your dvd\cd-rom, not your cdrw. If you don't own a 2 sheep burner then go to options>data type settings>record options and enable "bypass efm". Burn RAW DAO at 8x and enable "ignore media type"(emulation) and the backup should play in your cdrw m8.

What read\write settings did you use via Alcohol 120%? I despise Alcohol 120%& BlindWrite 5 simply because "autoplay" is embedded in the programs. If it were me, I would switch to CloneCD& Daemon Tools. Burn with Alcohol 120% again but this time disable Bypass efm and burn RAW DAO at 8x. Reboot your pc and the backup should play flawlessly in your dvd\cd-rom.

what settings do you recomend in CloneCD.
I am installing it now.
Edit:
in Alcoholer it says under the CloneCD tab for safedisk 2.9
"Can't Be copied: unistall cloneCD as it is blacklisted"
I don't like the sounds of that

The "Can't be copied: uninstall CloneCD as it is blaslisted" is in referance to certain 2 sheep burners that are a "hit&miss backing up Safedisc 2.8-3.1. A great example is my Memorex 52MAXX cd burner. CloneCD "in and of itself can't make a working backup, however if I create cuesheet using CloneCD then burn the image with FireBurner= 100% working backup.. CloneCD settings for Safedisc 2.9:
=============================================
Fast error skip: On
Read speed data: Max
Read speed audio: Max
Audio extraction quality: Best
==============================================
Write speed: RAW DAO at 8x
Always close last session
Amplify weak sectors: Ignore
==============================================
Reboot your pc and play the backup in your dvd\cd-rom.

Did you create cue sheet using CloneCD to read cd protected image(s)?
===============================================
FireBurner settings:
Open FireBurner>options>configuration.
Device Options tab folder>choose disc at once 96/close cd. Over to the right enable auto-correct subchannel\autocorrect EDC\ECC and set burn speed to 8x. Now click file>import tracks from cuesheet and burn. Reboot your pc and play the backup in your dvd\cd-rom, not your burner!

I wanted to ask that all this process is required with the 1st and 2nd CD, the 2nd CD or the 1st CD. Because this is teh first time I am trying to make a sucessful back-up, whereas in my last few attempts I failed.
Any help would be appreciated

when i doubt use clony but for me (Australian version) CD2 was the Play disk and the one with the copy protection.
and this wouldn't be the best game to start with since I gave up and now i play it off a virtual drive. It is one of the harder games to copy.

Which games are recommended to backup first? I am soon going to try Prince Of Persia and Medal Of Honour Allied Assult, but although I am not sure which one is going to work. I have a LITEON LTR-32123S - burner, I'm quite sure that its a 2 sheep burner (I still don't know the difference between the 2 sheep and the 1 sheep burner)I have all the appropriate programs such as Blind-Write, Fire Burner, Alcohol, Clone CD, Deamon Tool, ClonyXXL & CD Mage, I wante to know that what would be the appropriate software to use to back up CDs, and please can somebody tell me the meaning of "emulations"? That has been confusing me for a while. I also wanted to know that if there is any additional porgame that I would need to create backups. There is another porblem, when I try to install Blind Write it asks about installing Pcoffin.sys because it did not pass the microsoft test or something like that?
Please, Again any help would and will be greatly appreciated

I don't mean to sound harsh m8 but we have "sticky" threads posted as soon as you enter CD-R forum on what programs to use to backup Safedisc cd protection and a list of "2 sheep burners". Nuff' said...

Well good luck m8 as very few people have managed to make a backup of Prince Of Persia: Sands Of Time (Safedisc 3.15). You can try Alcohol 120% and enable "Bypass EFM" located in general>options>record settings. Read the image (cd 2) at 8 x and burn at 4x. I've got 20 coasters and counting trying to backup this game.... Good news, I can mount the image using Daemon Tools and play the game (yipee).

It is common to encounter read errors between the 1-10,500 sectors when reading an Safedisc cd protected image so don't worry m8.

It also appears to be the case that after the magic 10500 count, if you get errors they will come in clusters of 5000-10000 at a time... this isnt confirmed but I'll look into it if i have time :-)
