Aha, that did it! Dumped properly and the game installed from the iso without problems. Thank you so much Lugamo

Which is the first sector with errors?
589696.
Which is the range of errors that CloneCD returned
Welp after 3 hours CloneCD just ran thru the disc from 590272 to 3266880 (almost the end of the disc) in just a few minutes, all sectors in between giving read errors.
Upon trying to install the game using the image produced by CloneCD just now, the installer says the file "Cab1.cab" has issues, which seems to be a portion of the actual game's files

Re: Dumping DVD with physical Ring protection (9 replies, posted in General discussion)
I've started a new dump with CloneCD with TonyLizard's suggested settings. Before i thought it was hanging cause read speed was at 0kbps for a long long while but it turns out it's still working, but stays at certain problematic sectors (thought not all of them) for almost 1 hour and a half. So i'll let it sit there and hope for the best.
I got two drives and two copies of the game so might as well try Lugamo's method. What should I be looking for on the _volDesc.txt ? The last file that has a "FullPath" entry? The end of the file is a LBA File Entry that looks like this.

Topic: Dumping DVD with physical Ring protection (9 replies, posted in General discussion)
Hi everyone,
I got a DVD game (Race Driver: Grid, ES region, published by FX Interactive) with Ring protection(http://wiki.redump.org/index.php?title= … ping_Guide) but i'm having issues. First I used CDArchive with the following command,
CDArchive.exe --mode=etx --extrdrive=F --extrdiscmode=dvd --extrsectdir="C:\Users\Usuario\Documents\Folder\secout" --extrrefcue="C:\Users\Usuario\Documents\Folder\IMAGE.cue"but it immediately fails with message
Error extracting sectors: 2I found odd that the DVD dumping guide didn't say you have to specify a sector region , so passed it thru Alcohol (as mentioned in step 1 of this comment http://forum.redump.org/post/63385/#p63385) but said that the error region was around 82% of the disc.
Here's the Alcohol output

CloneCD hangs
DIC generates image that cant install the game
IsoBuster reports 2677201 read errors
I'm a bit at a loss here. There's a release for another region in the database so hopefully someone can help.
Thanks
