Probably everyone knows about this already ,but if not here goes, I bought a copy of a well known female artist and decided to make a backup copy for myself, I use roxio platinum 6.0 so I loaded up the program and settled down to copy my new disc ,My DVD rom was making some pretty perculiar noises so I tried to eject this cd couldnt get it to release even tried frantically pressing reset on the pc , , a Little box popped up You need to make changes before you can play this cd in this pc It said ...yes or no? I clicked NO , I read somewhere that someting is being put on some cds , which replaces or alters the windows driver and prevents copying, necessitating replacement of the windows driver or worse! Am I correct? If so Can anyone suggest a cd ripper that decrypts and is roxio compatible, ie wont cause conflict problems?
Did you try holding Shift when you insert the CD so that it doesn't autostart? And these other things. How to handle 'damaged' audio CDs. http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/70597
