ISO? Query

[bananamonkey87]

Hi everyone,

I'm wondering if someone can hep me out. I'm new to the whole ISO thing, so if someone chooses to help me, please keep the language simple. Okay. I'm looking to backup my games onto my computer; the plan is to have a convenient .exe file and all I have to do is double click on it and it’ll install the game. I'm not sure if that has anything to do with ISOs, but I figured if the whole .exe thing is too hard or not possible, I could do this ISO thing. Can anyone help me put my games onto the computer, all summed up in a neat, single, file?

1: Download ImgBurn --> http://www.digital-digest.com/softw...6npFb&decode=414a81d9160446fa897c5af03111e38d
2: Install it
3: Open ImgBurn ad insert the disc into your CD drive
4: Select "Create image file from disc"
5: Make sure the "Source" at the top is set to the CD drive with the disc
6: Choose a destination path to save the ISO
7: Set the read speed (both of them) to 4x to avoid read errors
8: Click the large button on the bottom left panel.

To mount the ISO:

1: Download "Virtual CloneDrive" http://static.slysoft.com/SetupVirtualCloneDrive.exe
2: Install CloneDrive (Make sure it's set to associate with ISO files)
3: Once installed double click the ISO you want to mount.
4: Install the game from the virtual drive

However, a lot of new games don't allow you to use an ISO image to actually run the game. You have to use the original disc (or find another way to run it that I cannot talk about on this forum)
