Hey all, Ive been burning my own backups for years now using the hotswap method and verbatim disks.

Lately with some of the newer games e.g. SBK08, Force unleashed, and now prince of persia, the burn will work fine until a point. Now Im taking a guess that its crashing has something to do with the disc changing to the 2nd layer as its always in the same spot and usually halfway through the game..

e.g. in prince of persia it only crashes when I try to go to the temple.. original works fine.

help?!? :/

Ok, I redid it all using scarface dvd which is 8,500,000 something bytes and it still does the same thing.

I did star wars force unleashed and it works perfectly up until I save Juno, and then it cuts to the cutscene and says the disc is dirty and unreadable while the FMV plays flawlessly in the background. the original plays fine..


HELP!?@ any ideas at all?? :/

Ok so I opened the data iso that I burned to check all the info was copying off the original. it was.

so naturally, I grabbed on of the backups that was giving me grief and tried to dump the iso to check all the data copied over and i got this error:




looks like it cant read the disc at the layer break! just as I suspected.

now one more question. how do I fix it?

TIA

that's pretty weird. So are you using verbs and burning the .dvd file?

Have you tried using clonecd?

well I burnt it on a different computer with a different burner, the burn finished 100% and then had some errors when verifying it. good news is it works!
