Anyone know how to create a backup for this game?

It doesn't neccesarily have to be able to run the game, just be able to install it.

The files on the original disc come to 4.81 GB (5,171,108,329 bytes) whereas a normal DVD can only hold 4.7GB (5,046,586,572 bytes), so how can I expect to fit all the files on?

Thanks for any help. And this is a legitimate backup, not for warez purposes btw.

Use a Dual Layer Disc, holds up to 8.5GB of data, sorted!

You could try and delete some folders/files off the disc to fit on a DVD5 if you know the installer doesn't need them, like Acrobat readers, DirectX if the installer does not automatically run a DirectX setup, demo Videos, foreign language files either off the disc or deleting from inside CAB files. Just depends on how the disc has been created.
