i copied it using the safedisc setting and the image file worked! when it came to putting it onto disc and running it the same error mesage came up.
so since i couldnt put it onto disc, i decided to have an image file on every pc i own, and alcohol.
when it came to putting it on my brothers laptop i did exactly the same thing and i got the error message when mounting the image. his drive is a TSSTcorp CD/DVDW SN-S082D.
SO i tried the downstairs pc and yep the image didnt work.
heres the copywrite protection
what am i dong wrong?

Did you use the same Image from the 1st computer or did you make a new Image on each computer?
Do you have some other Soft such as CloneCD or similar installed on your computers?

Make sure there are no leftovers (registry, etc. ...) of other Soft such as CloneCD, those will be discovered by SafeDisc and the game will not start.
Did you install the game from your Image or has the game been installed before? Make sure there are no leftovers of previous installs (registry, etc. ...)!
When you launch the game from Alcohol through the Image, go to "View" => DVD/CD drive EDM system => you will see all your drives, click on your real drives and deactivate them. Install the game and then launch the game. Donīt forgert to reactivate your real drives after you finished using Alcohol!!

Make sure you donīt have leftover on your hdd, from the game and other software (CloneCD, Daemon Tools, etc. ...)!
Then install from your alcohol virtual drive with the newly made image.
Btw, what is the original - on cd or dvd? And how have you made your image (settings)?

The read errors are normal for safedisc protection just let them run through. And no selecting ISO will not hael as that format can not hold the correct copy protection information.

And did you deinstall the game, before reinstalling or playing from the virtual drive?

yes i did deinstall, and i honestly cant remember which safedisk i used.
Whenever i run the original kaspersky tells me that it creates new file, is this signifigant?

What are the specs of your three computers? Some chipsets- like the Nforce ones- make it easier to overpass a protection, so the differense may be on the hardware level. In fact, as far as I know, Alcohol can not really still overpass Safedisk 4.85, so you are rather lucky to be able to run the game from the image on at least one PC.
By the way, good to meat a compatriot.

btw, its also nice to meet a fellow ellinas.
