Aaaaaanyway... Your problem is this:

Even if you make an exact 1 to 1 copy and burn it, there might still be some differences.

I was helped by Atari's support to make a copy of Civ3, as the law here in sweden states i can copy it for personal starage regardless of what any other company tries to tell you with theire copyright-laws.

The problem was the copy-protection.

Making the copy was no problem.

Getting the program to accept it was different.

Someone above sugested sd4hide. I'd say give it a go if the game uses SafeDisc vers. 4, as the first thing the game will do when it starts, is to scan the systems IDE/SCSI-busses for phantom-drives (eg mounted drives).

Alcohol's forum is a goldmine for bypassing copy-protection, and I usualy read there whenever i have a problem with backing up any of my discs.
If you searh them for the specific game, i can assure you someone else have had the same problem, and probably figured out how to solve it.

No copy-protection is impassable.. if they where, you wouldn't be able to read the disc.
