PHILIPS STILL KILLING SD2 AND SONY HANDLING SECUROM 1&2

'SAFEDISC 2 TOTALLY DESTROYED BY PHILIPS'


( 20 PLUSS COASTERS LATER )


Since byeing my SONY INTERNAL ATAPI - CRX140E-RP (1.0P) and downloading the fantastic CloneCd
I have not looked back with doing 1-1 copies of all my games.
So my PHILIPS PCA382RW IDE (1.4) became virtually redundant apart from using it as a speedy
reader and copying to the hard drive.
I have read loads of FORUMS on S.D.2. and of cause we are all still waiting the outcome of Diskdump,
and also I read that PHILIPS WRITERS can copy S.D.2. Games, So I thought I would give
It a go and to my surprise it copied SACRIFICE - HITMAN and the one everybodys been talking
about COMMAND AND CONQUER RED ALERT 2.
So this is how I did it CD'S set to DMA and PHILIPS PCA382RW VIA CLONECD WITH FAST ERROR SKIP TICKED,
CD WRITER SET TO READ AND WRITE X2.

( SD2 GAMES )



SACRIFICE - TOOK 1HR.20mins

HITMAN - TOOK 40mins

C&C RED ALERT 2 - TOOK 1HR.25mins

AMERICAN McGEES ALICE - TOOK 1HR.30mins

NO ONE LIVES FOREVERE - TOOK 1HR.30mins

DELTA FORCE 3 LAND WARRIOR - TOOK 1HR.10mins

TIGER WOODS PGA TOUR 2001 - TOOK 1HR.30mins

CHICKEN RUN - TOOK 1HR.30mins



( HARD GAMES TO COPY SECUROM ! )


THE FALLEN STAR TREK DEEP SPACE 9 - USED SONY VIA CLONECD DATABASE ( SECUROM 2 )

SUDDEN IMPACT - USED SONY VIA CLONECD DATABASE

COLIN MCRAE RALLY 2 - USED SONY VIA CLONECD DATABASE

SEVERANCE BLADE OF DARKNESS - ( SAME AS S.T.D.S.N. SECUROM 2 )



( All SECUROM 1 - 2 GAMES PLAYED FINE AFTER FIRMWARE UPGRADES )



( Got away with using cracks from www.gamecopyworld.com to save most coasters )

Sorry to drift away from the main subject :-)

You say that you read at 2x. How come? I thougth the read spead wouldn't affect the outcome, as any errors would flag up whilst the disc was being read?

I'm confused - any help greatly appreciated (having trouble with a couple of games myself :-( )

Take care.
