*NOT Pirateing*

I have a bunch of sims games. Not the actual sims thing but like sim tower, sim city and stuff like that. I want to make a BACKUP for it. I am not selling it or giving it out to other people just want to make a backup of this game. Is there a way to do this. Special software or certain procedure. I ask because since I have gotten these games there have been a few scratches and things like that on the game itself. I'm not sure how much non pirateing info I have to give in order to do this but I am not trying to sell them or anything like that this is strickly for me.
 
WinISO or MagicISO.
They should make bit-for-bit copies of the games and you can burn them to a blank CD.

CloneCD also works but if it messes up you may have to restart completely.

what do you mean restart completely? wouldn't you have to restart comepletely if the burn failed with anything else?
 
Not the burn, the whole process, ripping and everything.

If you have an ISO as a file on a hard drive you just have to do the burn. But CloneCD either makes a temp file (if you have one optical drive) or just does a straight copy (if you have two drives).
But that always seemed to be much slower than reading an ISO off your hard drive, so thats my preferred method.
