Chris,   Have you tried any of the x86 emulators for II-GS? I found a number of them on the web, but they all pretty much seem to force you to make your own ROM from the ROMS in a hardware II-GS which I don't have.   There are DOS, OS/2, WIN32, Linux, MAC, etc emulators out there.   http:/

Probably means it still has macrovision on it. CSS is what prevents it from being copied digitally from the disc, Macrovision is what prevents the video stream from the DVD player being fed into a VCR. There should be a little flag in the options menu to remove Macrovision as you decrypt. -- Bri

Pretty much. Basically, backups, under the law, are technically legal (as to not distribute) But, the process of reverse engineering the encryption code is illegal. CW -Original message- From: Rob Finger HWG [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Mon, 6 Jun 2005 13:16:01 -0500 To: The Hardware List
