Try giving your disc a good clean......

[mrraffles]

Just so you know, there is NO new or special protection of the "Master and Commander" DVD...

If you've just recently purchased the DVD, return it for an exchange...

[Mig$y]

Perhaps there is a flaw with your copy. Does the original play all the way through with no problems....?

I have successfully backed up Master & Commander (Region 2) with no probs.

If it is a recently purchased copy consider exchanging it

I backed up Master & Commander (Region 1) also with no problems.

Try reading the DVD's from your writer as opposed to your DVD-ROM.

only got the one dvd drive, do u think dvd rw may at fault

[Mig$y]

If you are unable to backup DVDs you successfully have before, I'd first try running a lens cleaner and if you still get no joy then take it to the doctor.

Although nowadays with writers being so cheap, sometimes it's easier to just buy a new one....

"i just tried a dvd that i have allready coppied ok and now have the same result and fault codes"
"do u think dvd rw may at fault"

Sounds like the MOST likely probability...
