Hi,

I'm trying to make a (-; backup ;-) copy of a CD (Goodbye Lenin - Yann Tiersen - EMI )-: ) which is protected by CDS 200 5.0 (I think). I've tried using Clone CD and EAC without using markers / tape (don't want to damage drive as it is not mine!) and I can read 19 tracks but only one is a music track (No. 18) - the rest show up as data tracks.

From reading the start of this thread I assume my hardware is too old to allow the software to make a copy without using tricks. I'm using the following drives:

SAMSUNG DVD-ROM SD-608 1.2
IDE CD R/RW 4x4x32 1.10

The CD writer won't even mount the CD in question but the Samsung Drive will.

Does anyone have any tips on how I can successfully make a copy without having to change my hardware? (I've tried making an analog copy via the line-in but the soundcard on the machine is just a built-in one (low quality hardware I know but I'm working with what I've got to hand!!) so the copy is not of viable quality.

Thanks in advance for any help,

Kaktus Fox
