Cannot copy Prince of Persia 5.25

SCP writes exactly what it sees and is able to duplicate 100% of anything that a drive will read. Is the original disk write protected? If so, are you write protecting the copy before you try to load it? Over 50% of the games for the C64 check the write protect notch to see if it is open and fail the protection - almost all disks ever commercially produced never have the write protect notch cut out, so it's a commonly missed copy protection tactic.

It is possible that the copy protection is beyond the last track you are copying (tracks 36-40 for a 35 track disk or tracks 80/81 for a 80 track disk). It is also possible that this program has protection that was deliberately not index referenced, and the write splice is ending up in the wrong location.

Send me the image (data<at>cbmstuff.com) and I can look at the flux display to see if the data is all indexed.
