KILL Posted May 23, 2015 Posted May 23, 2015 (edited) Hi guys, I could use some help! I am trying to create an image of Rainbow Six Raven Shield, the computer game. I own the original discs which I have kept in a cool area, in their original case, in a box. I was able to create an image of the first disc no problem, but disc 2 gives L-EC Uncorrectable Error. It will retry 20 times before failing. At the end it says 'IO Error.' When I put the CD in it autoloads up fine, so why can't IMGBurn burn it? I ran the disc under cool water and then wiped it and let it try. Unfortunately that made no difference... Here is the log for you. I 18:58:02 Operation Started!

KILL Posted May 23, 2015 Author Posted May 23, 2015 Your disc is copy protected. Why would disc 2 be copy protected and disc 1 isn't? This is a very old game too... Also I meant create an image, not burn.
LIGHTNING UK! Posted May 23, 2015 Posted May 23, 2015 I expect disc 1 is used for installation and disc 2 is required when you actually run the game? Copy protection has been around for ages. It'll either be safedisc or securom.

It'll either be safedisc or securom. I find this hard to believe. Disc 1 and 2 are both used for installation, I cannot remember which is actually used as the play disc. I have already made backups of other games I own like Diablo and Oblivion and had no problems. Doesn't ImgBurn say 'This disc is copy protected!' if that's the case? How can I get around this?
KILL Posted May 23, 2015 Author Posted May 23, 2015 (edited) Ok well it looks like you were right...After some google searches, Disc 2, and only Disc 2 is protected by SafeDisc. I confirmed it by looking at the Daemon Tools database. That said, I still cannot create an image from this disc. I tried it in Daemon Tools and I get this... What do I do now? Does this mean my disc is damaged or is this some SafeDisc trick? I figured if IMGBurn cannot create an image, Daemon Tools could. Read operation had hit a ECC/EDC bad (recoverable) block (824) Disc imaging failed. Elapsed time: 00:00:49 Edited May 23, 2015 by KILL
LIGHTNING UK! Posted May 24, 2015 Posted May 24, 2015 It only says a disc is copy protected when CSS or ACSS is detected. That's done by querying the drive. You can't query the drive to find out if a disc uses safedisc or securom etc. You'll have to ask for help over at the DT forum now I'm afraid, I can't help you beyond what I've already said.
