Ok...lets see.....first...
As i know westwood setp.exe are VERY sensitive to CD label mode...in other words.....setup.exe is not only "protected" with sf v xx in general so ISO character mode or ascii are quite important to this "home-protection"If you don't have a clone CD compatible CloneCd cd writer..then the most usual is to pass all the contents to your hd and then burn with same label with nero for example.
But there is a normal way to burn with same label without changing the way we write the CD..i say ISO mode or ascii one....westwood noted it and the makes its setups.exe extremely sensitive...this is like dummies in deltaforce land warrior....."home-protections" that anoys a lot.
Just be carefully when writing and will have success..

In the second part of the problem......what type of ixcomp did you used?If you point me to the way i could help you more.....

Good luck!

TIP: For example will put an example with final fantasy VII ( if i well remember).This game was protected with securom or something like but there was a special way to burn the cd or it will not be playable.You had to write it on ASCII mode and you should write an special identification in one of the different spaces of the nero options.....if you didn't..then copy result in a coaster...

Just try it and learn how...!
