				| This is the official Magic Engine forum so only Magic Engine related questions please ( although the 'occasional' off topic question is tolerated but hey, why not start your journey here the good way? ). But, you might want to visit www.rigg.info *hint* *hint* for more details on 'backups'... 
 To really answer your question about Magic Engine's compatibility with 'backups' : any properly burned cd will do, just get it from a reliable source. Again, the RIGG group can answer all this better than us ( well no but they are out there for this purpose so... ).

				| The "RIGG" group doesn't seem to be accepting any new members. So, just for an fyi, because I use copies of my own originals so that they don't have any chance of being ruined, I use NERO to make backups. |  |

 |  
				| 1. You use Daemon tools to mount the image. 2. Then you use Clone CD to do a cd copy and bam you got yourself a perfect copy of a pc engine game.

				| I've tried the above method using the CD copy feature of Nero, with no avail.  Is there really any sort of difference between the programs? |  |

				| use CDRWin.  Do a disc image.  Have the settings set at: 
 Reading: RAW
 Error Recovery: Ignore
 Jitter Correction: Auto
 Subcode Analysis: Disable
 Read Retry Count: 30
 Subcode Threshold: 300
 Data Speed and Audio Speed can be set with any speed if you have a new burniner.  If you have an older burner, use the slowest speed available.

				| Any particular version of CDRWin?  I'm using v3.9 and I don't see any option to get an image, unless I'm really that clueless and should be hitting the record/backup disc buttons... |  |

 When you open CDRWin, do you see an image that shows a CD with an arrow pointed towards what appears to be a Hard Drive???  It is also the Third Graphic Box on the top row of the program.  Use that, that will allow you to make a bin/cue copy of the image to your Hard Drive.  Then, when/if you burn the image to a disc, use the Image that looks like a laser writting onto a CD. Also known as the first image on the top row.
 
 Should solve your problems.

				| Hmm. I once made a backup of Super Darius with Clone CD and it worked just fine. Of course, my mom's laptop has an incredibly good burner, so probably that's why. _________________

 Clone CD can do images? I only use it for copying cd's.....
