cannot rip ps1 disc

Recommended Posts

I've been ripping my ps1 game collection and i've had one that keeps running into an error and won't proceed, the resident evil 2 claire disc. it keeps running into an "uncorrectable error" and I've gone as far as to get the disc resurfaced, but nothing so far fixes it. it always reaches 10% on the read and then it makes 20 retries before calling it a full error and then even if i hit continue it's just stuck there with errors

if it helps this is what the disc data shows before read:

If another drive doesn't work, try using Alcohol to read it.  Some of the discs in my collection would not read with certain hardware and ImgBurn, but Alcohol did.  If another drive AND another software don't work, then the culprit is probably the disc has gone bad with age and simply can't be read fully anymore.  It is almost 20 years since the retirement of the original Playstation hardware.

I haven't used it in years, but I'd suggest trying the Alcohol site.

 

http://trial.alcohol-soft.com/en/downloadtrial.php

 

There are free trial and free edition downloads at that site.  As I said, it's been a long time since I've used it, so I don't remember what the free editions can and can't do.  I would guess the free editions probably can't write images, but they may be able to save as ISO or whatever format is necessary that ImgBurn can burn.

 

Those AV warnings may simply be PUP alerts.  PUP's are Potentially Unwanted Programs, not viruses.  The software may ask you if you want to install some other bundled software along with it, particularly if it's free, so don't get click happy installing it.  AV vendors often times lump PUP's into virus positives because it's simply easier on them to code.

That would need to have been because of a different issue (like analysing gaps between tracks or something). An unreadable disc is an unreadable disc - they only have access to the same commands (to 'read' a sector) as I do.

I'll have to try alcohol when i can, but my only concern is that when i downloaded the installation exe from the site, i checked it on virustotal and almost 30 different vendors flagged it as trojans, adware, malware, etc.

And i doubt the diskdrive is the issue, it read all my other disks just fine. Legend of dragoon, metal gear solid, digimon world 1-3, rampage world tour, and more, all read. Dino crisis 2 and rampage world tour did have some moments of lag, they stuck at 0%  for almost 10 minutes but after that, it was just fine and they read with no errors, it's just this one disc giving issues, but i wouldn't think the disk is bad, i had it fully resurfaced and it's still giving the issue

Probably false positives for PUP's, as I said.

 

Just because the disc surface has been polished up doesn't mean the data itself isn't unreadable.  And if you're getting other discs that read in ImgBurn and not this one disc, then it's pretty much the disc that won't read is the problem.  You will know for sure if Alcohol doesn't work or if another drive doesn't.

well, I guess the disc is bad. tried alcohol 120 and it had errors, tried loading it into an emulator directly from the drive and it read the disc only enough to load the title screen. if it went to a gameplay demo or if i started a newgame it would just leave me at a black screen after the title screen. still, thanks for the assistance

Have you try using IsoBuster, wonderful tool.  This thing will see and try to extract files out of discs that are either damaged or when other programs can read them correctly, although its not free, but its worth every penny.
