I tried RawDump on my desktop's Plextor. Wii discs are, of course, not recognized.
On a whim, I tried to read in on my old HP laptop, and it didn't seem to continue spinning and not reading like the Plextor. So I loaded up RawDump 2.0 and it seemed to recognize the Wii disc.
The DVD-ROM in my HP is an HL-DT-STRW GCC 4241 N0C29.
As RawDump fires up, it shows "Wii disc" under the drive dropdown box. Dog Island would error out "illegal character in path". I wiped down the disc and boo-yah, the disc is id'd as The Dog Island.
"Finding seeds" shows in the RawDump window, and I get the dreaded "Arithmetic overflow" error that even people with the correct drives seem to get. I've tried DMA and PIO modes with the rip terminating with the overflow error.
-Could I have stumbled on a drive that may work?
-Or does RawDump allow any drive to recognize a Wii disc?
-If this drive could work, any hints to try to get a successful dump?
Thanks.
