I use DVD Shrink, Decriptor and Nero 6 with Verbatim DVD-R/Advanced with a Sony DW-U18A, Athlon 64 3200, 160GB HD, 512MB DDR400 RAM.

I've been making backups of all of my movies over the last couple of weeks, and up to now I have been using Shrink and Decriptor or sometimes Decriptor and Nero and they have produced great results pretty much every time.

However, right now I seem to be in a bit of a rut trying backup a particular movie. The actual disk that I am trying to make a copy of is actually a backup it's self (yes, I do own the original movie, but I can't find it anywhere at the moment).

The whole process of copying an ISO to the HD folder (using either Decriptor or Nero 6 to read) rund from the source disk just fine right upto the 85% mark, and then the whole process just seems to hang (not the PC though). When reaching 89% the PC anticipates, say, 2 min's time the process will complete the. In reality though, the longer that the programme/s hang, the longer the machine anticipates the time remaining.....right up to 40 min's!

I do not have the facility to burn on the fly, as DVD wise on the PC only have a combi DVD writer, although I suspect that on the fly would not make any difference to this problem

Is there a fix out there for 'part damaged' disks donor. The donor disk that I am trying to back up plays the movie just fine in any player that I throw it at....

THe name of the movie thats giving problems?

Run a scandisk using neros info tools, check to see if the disk has bad spots on it.

321,

Thanks for the reply. I was trying to back up Finding Nemo, but I have since located the original, and I have made a further backup of the original no probs at all.
