How do i put a computer game from my desktop onto a cd?

Question

I have a game on my desktop, but do not have the cd for it. I want to make a copy and put it on my other compter. I do not know how to do this, and what kind of cd do i use?

Answer 1

u can simply burn the game folder as data to a disk ... but if it has some form of protection it will need a crack to work on a pc it wasnt installed on ..

Answer 2

If it's a typical game that you buy the software and install (i.e. Need For Speed, Myst, Doom etc), then there's no way you can copy it. The original cd has Setup executable files that are not copied onto your computer when you install, and without those files you can't install onto a new computer.

Answer 3

It has no impact on what type of CD you have.

You probably won't be able to copy all of the necessary files. All applications install several system files, such as .dll files. If you attempt to copy the shortcut or the application from the Program Files location, you will not be grabbing all of the files.

Answer 4

You should be able to copy all the game files from wherever they are stored (probably Program Files) and put them on any regular CD-R(W).

Answer 5

computer games are now very large in space so i dont think that they would fit in a cd. you need a blank dvd and a dvd burner.
