  • Tool that could help make your backup copies

    After having a problem with DOW and DOWWA i came upon this nifty little program Alcoholer....you can find it here at cdmediaworld.com http://cdmediaworld.com/hardware/cdr...utils_10.shtml

    It's a utility that checks the protection of the game disk......it frontends other pgrograms to but I used Alcohol 120......I put my game disk in.....set the drive up to my Lite-on cd-rw and it picked up the protection......it also gives you the option of starting alcohol and passing the paramters needed so the copy will work.......I made an image copy to my hard drive...mounted it with Daemon Tools 4.0 and the games came right up....no problems at all......and from reading these posts it seems Dawn of War and Winter Assault has problems when it comes to making backup copies.

    Let me know if this works for you.....It did for me and I tried to make a working copy of these disks for a long time with no luck until now.....

    Good Luck

    Alcoholer is pretty old and probably won't recognize more recent copy protections. We generally recommend to scan a disc with Aray Protection Scanner and select the right Alcohol 120% profile accordingly.

      yep...you are correct....Array Protection Scanner didnt work at all for me that's why I posted the above......Maybe it's my system but the bottom line is Alcoholer worked....
