I don't think my CD-drive can read self-boot backups! PLEASE HELP

When i put in self boot back-ups it reads it as an audio cd with one or a few tracks.
If it has a few tracks i can use blind read to download the info.
But if it only reads one track as being 44 kb then nothing i do will get the info off the disk. When i try to burn it it just burns the audio track.
Does anyone have any ideas about what i should do???????
