Sometimes you will find that a game cd will rip fine, ie you can make a 
ISO using the dd command. But then when you burn a cd from it and install 
it and try to run it, the executable complains that "please insert the 
hitman 2 cdrom".

This is because that I think the program checks to find out whether there 
are certain key marked sectors, or sectors written using low power. So 
when it cant find them it returns a error.

For this type of isos to work you need to to give your users the cracked 
executable, "xxxxx-no-cd.exe".
