[redmaggott]

I have Nero 5.5.9.1.4 and would like to be able to make backup copies of protected software.Will this program do the job or do i need different software?Also,what do all the different modes like RAW etc all about?I tried to make a backup copy of my Jedi Outcast game but it didnt work.Are burn speeds important etc?Any advice please?Thanks

Maybe you should also update NERO (latest version: 5.5.10.42)

i agree with livy clone cd is one of the better cd copying programs when it comes to copying protected cds.

Always try and check what kind of protection the cd has as this can help u choosing the method of burning etc. Theres various tools at cdmediaworld.com and u should also read up there about what all the different protections and write modes are. As for burning/reading the disks, i recommend blindwrite or as Livy said clonecd (for games theres a database for clonecd with recommended settings).
