I think what they mean is that you are not allowed to copy and distribute.... in your case Sent I think they wouldn't care.

Indeed, copying for backup purposes is legal, at least under UK law (although that said, it's illegal to break copy protection, even for backup purposes - though nothing I copied was copy protected).

You're allowed to backup disks for home, but once you start distributing those disks it becomes illegal.

Does anyone know anything about saving game files onto a dvd? Dad has tried quite a few times, but for some reason, halfway through it just stops.

I'm pretty sure it'll be the only way to get my game working properly again. My Sims 2 is royally Flooping 'ecked.

Who has the eragon dvd? I have it and the bonus features and deleted scenes are quite good. I even have a review about it on my website which you can see in my sig.

To contribute to some posts above, i also do not own any pirated movies/dvds, though a lot of people do.

Well, it's good news as allways on the Piracy front. Starforce seems to be dead. Royal pain to pirate, my solution was to disconnet the DVD drives.

How would you disconnect the dvd drives?

Pull out the Data or Power cable?

I don't know how you would pull out the data, but definitely the power cable you could.

Post meant the data cable or power cable...


That's the copy protection kicking in most likely, Artemis. Get CloneCD.



And yes, Apo, I know, that's what I just said.

You seem to know heaps about technology Sent! I admire that of you. Anyway for the video game stopping half way though when copying did the makers of the game install some kinda software into te game to make it stop half way through so people couldn't copy it?

Traitors? What group is traitors?

Those who have been Perma-Banned.

Why'd Fred get perma-banned? I mean, I really didn't like him, but I'm curious.

I'm wondering that too.

CloneCD? Please tell me it's availible in Canada.

Hmm, Gladdy must also have deleted the offending replies. Bad form.

Fred was banned because that was the owners second account, the first being banned also.

Still, what did he do? I never got perma banned...

Attempting to crack staff accounts.
Spamming
Etc.

A quick google search will find you its website, from which you can download a month-long trial version, and then buy and download the full version if you want it (I don't have it; I use it so infrequently I can change computers often enough to grab a new trial each time).
