How to Make a Backup Copy of a CD-ROM Game
If you're worried about scratching up or breaking your favorite CD-ROM game, you can always create and store a backup copy. Using a writable CD drive and CD imaging and burning software, you can create a disc image of your favorite game and then record that image onto a blank CD-R or CD-RW. This will ensure that you'll always have a copy of your CD-ROM game in case something happens to your original.
