    I have a question, if i can perfecltly burn securom 4.8x protected CD's like WIII: the frozen throne and more, am i suposed to be able to write succesfully Safedisk one???, or safedisk is harder to copy, i dunno, or for copying securom you dont need EFM encoding, just this question, because in clonyxxl says 10 skulls in securom and 9 in safedisk, i think it should be possible, but not sure.

    So your "install" disc spins up in your drive(s) with no problems? [bold] Not every "rom" can bypass the twin sector cd scheme of the SecuROM 4.8.x cd protection, therefore a "play" disc must be burned (bwa or mds file) tucked inside the folder where the image of the SecuROM 4.8.x was saved.[/bold] EFM encoding isn't a issue backing up SecuROM but your "reader" must have the ability to read sub-q channel (data\audio). EFM encoding is a factor when backing up Safedisc 2.5.x-2.9.x.
    So when you read threads here mentioning "2 sheep burner", this refers to burners that "write regular bit patterns [bold] correctly [/bold] "1 sheep burners" write regular bit patterns [bold] almost correctly. [/bold] SecuROM 4.8.x is the tougher pc protection to backup (my opinion).
