I actually got my old crappy laptop to read Wii discs with Friidump, which is an Italian ripping program. The other program (rawdump) did not work at all on that drive.
If your drive is in an HP laptop and its part number is HL-(anything), it might be able to read Wii games. Mine is a DVD-ROM/CD Burner. I can't say for DVD burners. My main PC's drive is also a DVD-ROM/CD Burner, but it can't do anything with Wii discs, it actually freezes explorer for awhile then just acts like there is not a disc in the drive. Using Friidump, its main speed option made the drive read the game at something like 155MB per hour... and it crashed around 400 MB. Then i tried the -3 option, which is lower-level and should be "slower," but it reads 900MB/h... and it completes in about 5 hours. ***EDIT*** I do not know if Friidump works for GC games. I think I read somewhere that it does, but your ISO ends up being 4+GB because it thinks it's ripping a Wii game. 07-16-2009, 04:52 PM

I'm personally one of those guys who ordered that LG drive when Wii disc dumping was first developed. For those who don't know, LG drives supported are LG-8164b and LG-8163b (possibly some others, but these two are known). And the application used to dump games is called RawDump: http://gbatemp.net/index.php?download=1769
Also, this is what I have read about legality... It is illegal to download any copyrighted video game from any source for any amount of time regardless of whether or not you've purchased the game at any point in time. The only legal way to own these games in formats such as ISO is to back up the game yourself. Even if the MD5 hash matches an ISO you ripped yourself with an ISO someone else ripped, you're not allowed to take the ISO from the other person. Technically though, it IS legal to download ISOs from the internet... but only if you ripped it yourself and uploaded and are redownloading what you uploaded. :p It's a matter of who ripped it, not a matter of what data the file contains or where the file can be taken from. 07-17-2009, 06:13 AM

I have a copy of Twilight Princess GC, burned on a DVD, not the original GC disc, and I want to play it. I can load it straight from the disc, but how can I take it off the disc? When I check the D: it's as if I put a Wii or GC game in there, so I can't just drag the .gc or files out. Is there a ripping tool for this?
