What read settings are you using? Select 'Fast Error Skip' and try fiddling around with the FES settings like error correction and read retries. Watch the log windows while creating the image. You'll get a lot of read errors in the first 10.500 sectors or so. After this point the disc should be error free.

Goodluck!

...and be patient, first 2 - 3 percent (where all the read errors are) can take ages. Typically 15 to 30 min for 1 percent.

Open the log when you have started reading...watch to see if errors are being reported...if so, your getting there....just wait.

that depends if your reader can do FES
my old 52X was very slow when reading FES
but now my liteon ltd 163 does it very fast
