Headed to Afganistan need help please

[yoyumm2]

Befor anyone yells at me I have read thru much of the info on the site and on the forums and I am still lost.

I'm home on R&R from Afganistan and I want to take my games back with me to play on my laptop.

Problem is I don't want to take the originals and chance having them ruined/blown up/stolen.

Could someone help me out here I want to burn workable copies but can't figure out how.

The games I am trying to do are age of empires III, Morrowind III game of year edition, and Civ IV.

I just bought all of them for my new laptop to take over there with me it get super boreing when your not on duty .

Any help sure would be apriciated!!!

Thanks tons
