Ps2 Protected Cd

**Cygnuz-Y** · 11-12-2003, 07:04 PM

A friend of mine gave me a PS2 game on a CD-R, but when i try to copy it, windows tells the CD is 9 Gigs, but is impossible cuz the cd is a VERBATIM 700MB, is this some kind of CD protection so i cant copy the game?, can some one tell me how to skip this protection...

Thanks....

You are wrong, cuz i can clarly see is a CD-R, he didnt gave me a Original CD, he gave me a copy, so i know i can copy it, but it has the damn protection that tells windows that is a 9 gig cd....

I don't know why that is.
Try a simulation in Nero, that usually tells you if you can get a good copy or not.
No wasted CD-Rs either.

When i do that , it says that it cannot read from the CD, but if i pop the cd in my PS2, i can play it...

Is the drive you are inserting it in your PC a DVD drive. This is a long shot so I don't know.

By the way, Alcohol 120% is an excellent program for these types of things. Try it.

I already tried and it says all the sectors in the CD are corrupted, but again if i insert this disk in my PS2 i can play it Smothly...

I want to copy like 10 cds and they all have this stupid protection, i have another 5 that doesnt have any kind of protection, i already cloned those 5 games...

If this doesnt have a solution can somebody at least tell me how do you protect games like that, is amazing...
