if the LBA # of the first session isn't the LBA # that the second session is set to the game will be a coaster. almost every backup DC game is 2 sessions. first is that a LBA number is the sector number that a session starts at.

In order to backup backups easily, you should know a few things. after 2 weeks and 15 coasters, look at me writing a guide for all of you. This is for you if you get a "TAO error", "command descriptor block error" or a "buffer underrun error". why can't our burners read & write all the subchannel data? :( i'm writing this because my burner, a memorex crw-1622, can't copy a game directly from a self booting backup.

Ok people this is the first time i've ever written a tutorial so i hope it helps you out. anyone can post this, print this for toilet paper or whatever without my permission. please include this part if you decide to put this on your web page. sorry to anyone who deserves credit if i forgot you. much props to DeXT because he codes some very clever programs. I'll start this by saying that i take no credit for any of the software referred to in this guide. =if the text looks messed up, maximize this window and click on the Edit menu and then Word Wrap=.
