OK i OWN Call of duty 3 and want to make a backup.

I have one of the correct LG Drives.
I have both RawDump and FriiDump.
I also have RegionFrii and Brickblocker.

I got FriiDump because Rawdump wasnt working.

Friidump SEEMED to work BUT the iso was not of the so called correct size.

Q1 - Is this size thing i have read actually true - does it need to be exactly 4,669 or whatever it is - because it wasnt?

Nevertheless i burned it to a disk - i put disk in Wii (which has latest Argon Chip by Infectus.

It said it could not read the disk, but then i had a thought - i put the "backup" i just created BACK in the LG drive and opened it with Rawdump - and rawdump recognised it as a Wii disk named COD 2 UK.

Q2 - If it is recognised by rawdump as the COD2 disk, why wont it load on the actual Wii?

Q3 - Am i correct that i shouldnt need to regionfrii or brickblock it because it is already the correct region (PAL) and it has no update?

I have just seen the IDE PIO setting instead of DMA thing. I have done this and now find that Rawdump SEEMS to be working - still all my Q are valid, esp if the dump is the wrong size again...

Many thanks for any replies in advance.

Please help im up till 3am every night with this and NOTHING works!

Question are you using the brickblocker or any other patch with this game the reason i ask is if the game doesn't require a firmware update then why dont you just use your original disk.

Or if you must use a backup make sure it doesn't contain origitech on the disk several games now have blockers installed inside the disk if the disk was copied it will not read because origitech as it is known goes by other names i.e capcom's anti copy security which several company's use a hidden file to confirm weather the game is legit.

So you may need another type of patcher
