Damn I cant back this game up at all

I have tried Clone 4 with ClonyXXL safedisc 2 settings, cd mate etc

I have backed up many safedisc 2 games before with no problems so I know my HP 9300 supprorts the raw writing modes...

It seems to copy alright and install ok...but it just dies of the intro screen everytime...

I know other poeple have backed this up without any difficulties...I wondered if I have a different version or something (UK)

I am also running XP which it doesnt seem to like also....as its a real struggle to get even the origianal to run....

I also have a pioneer A03 DVD writer combo....but no luck with that either

Thanks in advance for any help or ideas
