i tried alcohol 120. and when i was copying a game one of my own it kept giving me read errors is that normal. as i took it of thinking it wasnt working thanks. p.s top site.

Many games emply copy protections such as safedisc which have read errors as part of the copy protection and so are prefectly normal. Try scanning the disc with A-ray scanner to see what copy protection is used:
