Steve, I have been reading your post and reading ijor's posts and Have come to a conclusion! neither one of you guys know what you are talking about! (1- Happy Drives wont copy 34 sectors but they will? 810 happy I have one it won't work it errors out each and every time! 2) ijor WTF??? overlaping sectors really! (GOT CRACK)! it's called skew! not overlaping and 3)- EOA is Electronic Arts. and it's not EOA it's (BOX, Circle, Triangle) it's art a representation of art; so lets just call them Electronic Arts! Ok Guys! Some of the new protections cannot be copied without the happy files and they only work on happy drives. If you try to run them on any other drive it says Drive not happy! Both of you guys must be doing some heavy crack! but you have one thing right steve! The Happy 810 can and will create 34-1000 sectors per track if you know how to do it, seems like you do have somthing on that ijor dude, but it's not reliable data and the disk must be loaded several times before it caches the skew alignment just right and whoa, it will work!
If you have a rock solid method steve for copying Electronic Arts games with a happy 810 drive without using the happy files, I would like to know exactly what you are doing to get a good copy that works everytime without a happy drive!
