Those errors are normal just select the Sasfedisc 2/3 datatype and wait them out.

Well I tried this setting and when i try to use the cd the game the flaf screen shows for a long time and then i get a error screen popping up. This is the "tell microsoft about this problem" screen where they want you to 'send the error report' to microsoft. Below is the error title.
AppName: sims2sp2.exe AppVer: 1.5.0.121 ModName: ~df394b.tmp
ModVer: 0.0.0.0 Offset: 00083c9c

Safedisc copy protection requires a burner capable of replicating the EFM patterns on the burned disc. It's likely your drive is not capable making a physical backup of this game. However, you should be able to run it from an image in the virtual drive.

You could also try lowering the read / write speed, but as Jito says, the image should work fine from the Virtual Drive.

I tried running the game from the virtual drive, does not work. The game reads the virtual cd then asks for te\he original disk.
