In other words, sector scanning is useless for every copy protection except Tages, and then only for v5.

That's pretty limited...

A-Rays sector scan could detect Safedisc and SecuROM for sure. I'm not certain about Starforce (maybe I should dig out my old Chaos Theory disc and try it).

I'm still using A-Ray to detect copy protection on newly bought games, before they are installed. Just knowing what protection is on a disc is enough to select the right settings in DT-Pro or Alcohol. No need to know the exact version of the protection to create a working image.
Then after image creation I put the original DVD back into it's box and I install & play the game off the image.

Let's get back to topic please...

I made a copy of CS3 Design Premium by making a simple ISO using UltraISO and it worked like a charm.

However I then moved the ISO onto my laptop to see if that made a difference (main machine running vista, the laptop running Windows XP MCE), and I had the same problem of "Insert CD".

I did some digging and I figured out what it was: as some point in time (when I had CS2 installed on the laptop) I installed the programs via the DVD-drive, but during uninstall I kept my profiles (just in case). So I thought "what would happen if I was to get rid off CS2 entirely, including cleaning the registry?". Guess what, it worked, I could install CS3 via the ISO I made.

Hope this works for you mate.
