Thank you for your reply and your leads to those threads Nephilim, i tried downloadind ARay Scanner and ican download it however my computer says cused an invalid page fault in modular and all kinds of things related to the stack dump so i cant even put A RAY ON MY computer have any more suggestions????
Thank Y uo Quadratic i really appreciate your reply i'll try alcohol120/clone cd if all else failsi'll say a prayer.
I wouldn't recommend CloneCD myself as it's plagued with blacklisting problems and to be truthful I've no idea about the stack dump error - not my area of extpertise. As for your game let's try using ClonyXXL to find what protection it uses. It hasn't been updated in a while but it should serve our purposes here: http://www.softpedia.com/get/CD-DVD-Tools/CD-DVD-Images-Utils/ClonyXXL.shtml It'd also help to know the exact model your Sony is. Once we know what protection we're up against we can get into what settings and apps to use
thank you Nephilim again for your reply, as for trying clonyxxl i went to that site tryed downloading it and it wouldn't let me download, however at this time my system crashed i'm hoping to have my computer up and running on the 26, february 2005 i'm using a friends computer to reply to you and let you no my status and not to be rude and just leave your response hanging so once again i'm back to praying and fingers crossed everything works out on the 26th.until then thanks so much for your HELP....
I hope you get everything back to normal soon. If you end up reinstalling the OS then try installing A-Ray again and see what happens
