Are there some CD's that just can"t be backed up ? I have a program cd that
requires the original cd in the drive when first starting the program. Then
it works fine but My back up cd will not work for this although it will
install the program. Any Ideas or programs that would work? Now using Clone
CD and Clone DVD. I have win XP 512 megs RAM and 80 gig 7200 RPM HD.

Thanks

Usual work around is to make an ISO and mount that on a virtual drive.
Even then, some won't work because the install has written the drive
letter to a CFG or INI file and the virtual drive has a different
letter. You fix that by editing the CFG or INI file.
