One way some manufacturers use to protect cdroms, is to put errors on the CD..
They stamp all their CDroms so it doesn't matter to them, but if you use a burner on a PC (regardless of OS) it will report an error and won't burn it, or it will burn it, but will ignore the error. The software can then check to see if the errors are on the CD... if not its a copy and won't run. Playstation I did that, thats why you needed to add a chip to the playstation to use copied CD's... you are out of luck if you are burning CD's on a PC. rgds Frank -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Tuan Tran Sent: Monday, 29 October 2001 1:39 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [newbie] How do I protect my CDs?
