Problems Copying Syphon Filter 3 (NTSC U/C)

I'm having HUGE problems and I'm getting very frustrated.

Copying with CDRWIN - I've downloaded the patch for Syphon Filter 3 found at www.megagames.com. I've copied it following all the rules, so I think. I've copyed it using the patch and without using the patch. Although, I've been reading with my CDROM and writing with CDRW. When I try to read with my CDRW, it won't complete. I don't know if that makes a difference. When I installed the patch, the disk started spinning and then started spinning backwards.

Copying with CDCLONE - Again, my CDRW isn't supported, but it read with my CDROM and wrote just fine with my CDRW. Still didn't work though.

I'm running out of options. Will someone please help me out. I really want this game. I've never had problems copying games until this one.

Also, I'm having same problems with Tony Hawk Proskater 3 NTSC U/C.

are you using a cracked version of cdrwin. is there any files on the disk because if you put in a blank cdr the disk will start spinning and then start spinning backwards.

Well, I don't know if there were any files copied. It said writing leadin right of the bat. I have wasted 4 CD's already on this. The copy of CDRWIN, I downloaded from www.consolesource.com and it is supported by Golden Hawk. I have copyed about 10 older games with no problem on this version. This is my first time with newer games. What do you think?

just pop the burnt disk into your burner and double click the cdrom icon, after you do that let me know if there is any files on the disk.

Hm..I copied this Game without any problem..That is stange! I doubt that you need a patch..At least not for NTSC US version..

Which burn software did you use? Maybe it is because it is a Blockbuster game and is just to scratched up........

CDrwin..100% working..You could be right and BBV games are scratched seldomly because people who borrow them so no respect for other people's stuff..
No patching at all! I made a Image off the Original(My Friend who works at Funcoland let me borrow the Brand new one) and I copied it..It's known that Cracked CDrwin(Mostly) to act up occasionally..Rarely once in a while it acts up on me as well..
There is a one solution I use but it's complicated and it might not work for you..Oh well! Keep trying Dude!! You'll get it..
Try Using Clone Cd, it reads some scratched CD's..CDRwin is picky..
