In Workbench i can't copy anything, since an 880 error always pop's up... But i can use X-Copy without a problem, without any error whatsoever...

The filesystem is corrupt, not the disk medium itself. That is the error is logical one, not physical. You can XCopy the disk ad-infinitum and the logical error gets copied to every copy.

DiskSalv, ABTools or similar repair tool might be able to restore some or all the files.

Ah true, didn't think of that.

For such games, you just need to use a copy program that Inhibit DFx: before inserting the disk, or use copy program that shuts down the system (like XCopy).
