i download alcohol 120% today and love it. i have a few games that are safedisc according to the database link on this forum and i cant get alcohol to image them. i have tired all three different safe disc options and none work. I was wondering if there is something i should know about this process or safedisc. i have gotten other games to image so i know how to do it.

Thank you posting your system report.
Could you specify what you mean with "... none work"? What happens?

When i try to image a disc with safe disc protection on it, during the process it gets way too many errors and stays at .03% i let it run like this for a few minutes but then it goes no where so i cancel the process. Just to note other games i have imaged take only a few minutes to finish the process.

i have another question in which mabye someone can help me. I have warcraft 3 installed so imaged it and tried to play the game with the image and when it starts it says insert game disc after i click play game from the menu.
this might be an easier question to answer.

Thanks!

Getting many read errors is part from this so called SafeDisc copy protection. Just let them pass.
You need to know the version of the SafeDisc involved. Get the tool ProtectionID to check that.

It depends on your burner, I would just use the SafeDisc 2/3/4 one.

* Maybe you must use a tool called SDHider. Google for it.
