Re: Copy Protected CD's

I heard that using a pencil around the outside edge of the CD would solve 
that problem.

Brian,
How could Easy CD-DA Extracter help me with the CD which cannot even be
seen by Windows?  It would be great if it could, but I'm not sure how it
would be able to assist in this case.  Perhaps for the CD where I'm
getting stuck with CDex on track 7, it might be worth looking for
another program, so I might give it a try for that one at least.
Thanks,
Caroline.

Subject: Copy Protected CD's

Hello,
I have two CD's which I am trying to rip to MP3 using CDex.  I have
successfully ripped around twenty CD's, but two in particular will not
rip.
When I insert one of the CD's into either my DVD-ROM or CDRW drive, it

is not recognised by Windows or CDex, so I am unable to rip it.  When
I
insert
the other CD into my CDRW drive, the drive whirs as if it is trying to

access the disk for around two minutes before giving up.  If I put the
same
CD into my DVD-ROM drive, the disk can be read with Windows and CDex,
but
I
am only able to rip six of the 13 tracks using CDex.  When CDex
reaches track 7, it estimates the time the ripping to MP3 is likely to

take, but this estimate goes up and up the longer I leave the disk in
the drive, eventually reaching something ridiculous like 50 minutes,
at which time I give up and press the Cancel button.  Tracks 8-13 will

not rip either.
Both
CD's play fine in my hi-fi's CD player.
Does anyone know if there is anything I can do to enable me to rip
these CD's.  I'm wondering if they're using some kind of copy
protection,
although
there is nothing to indicate this on the CD cases.  Either that or
there could be a problem with the CD's which my hi-fi player is able
to ignore
but
which the drives on the PC are sensitive enough to notice.  Both CD's
are around two years old if this makes any difference.
Thanks for any theories/suggestions.
Caroline.
