|
 |
I try to make a backup of Infernal with Virtual CD 8. I left the setting to default and turned on the backwards sector check option because of TAGES.
Virtual first reads the data and makes an image (actually it makes three, a .000, a .001 and a .002 file). Then, it starts to verify the image by reading the disk backwards. The problem: it takes ages. The image creation was normal, but the sector check is very, very slow. After two hours, I'm only at 6%.
What could I do wrong?

I can't keep my PC running for 30-40 hours straight and I don't think it would lead to a correct image. The game DVD is only 1,6 GB. A normal DVD9 game would need 200 hours that way. This can't be normal.

I think it goes faster at the end, probably the protected shit is at the beginning.
You can always try some different settings ofcourse. Maybe slower reading speed (Yes, slower).
PC: Yes. Console: No.

I also tried an external drive, but nothing. The speed remains at 30-40 sectors per second. I guess some process or driver on my system doesn't go well with Virtual CD.
How good is the crack-rate for TAGES? Is there one group that usually cracks all TAGES protected games?
