What's the best and cheapest way to copy a protected CD?

Postby UALOneKPlus on Mon Feb 09, 2004 1:15 am

I bought the Hoyle Casino 2004, and even after a full install, the game will not play without the CD in the drive!! :evil: :evil:

Since I fly a lot, I don't want to have the original CD with me as I will probably break it or lose it.

None of the Nero copies of the CD work, so I am now forced to "pirate copy" this lame CD just for backup purposes!! :evil: :evil:

Stupid Hoyle. Had I known about this problem, I would never have bought their game. They DESERVE to have their games illegally copied, stupid a$$hats.

Now, I need your recommendation to copy this POS CD, since I've never had to copy a protected CD before.

I have the LiteOn CDR-5W48, LTR-52246S to use for copying.

Thanks for your suggestions!
