Need Help on making back-up

[achyfuzzball]

I am new at this and need help. I bought my boy a game, "EA Sports Championship Bass", and I need to make a copy of it before he destroys it. I tried to follow the directions on how to make a copy but it failed to work. I know it is something I did or did not understand, I copied the complete file to a new folder, downloaded the patch, removed the given file and installed the new file and burnt the cd. But when the game starts, a screen comes up saying "verifing cd", then asks to install the cd, even though the copied cd is in the player. The instructions says to name the cd but I dont understand this. I am not using any special program or anything, am I suppose to? I am using a HP 9110i. If anyone can help I thank you.
