Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2 PSX Backup Problems - Club CDFreaks

databoy2k · 30-12-2006

Hey All,
I've got a question for you. I'm trying to back up Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2 for the original Playstation (PSX) to an image file using the latest Alcohol 120%. The writing process gets to 79.6% or so, and then runs into disk read errors. Obviously, checking "ignore read errors" allows the ripping process to continue, HOWEVER I left the computer to work for 16 hours (that's correct, Sixteen Hours) on the image file, to find that it had progressed to 86% and that's it.
So here's the question: Anybody had ANY luck with getting this stupid disk to rip? Any changes to settings that I may be missing? (I've used both the PSX profile and the standard profile, neither have had any success)
Is Alcohol not a great program for this? Is there a program that there HAS been success for ripping this disk on?
Thanks for any help!

Sounds like there's a problem with your disc. There shouldn't be any read errors while copying PS1/PS2 games.

Drat...
Ok, thanks for the reply. I'll see if I can borrow a buddy's disk.
