Help a noob with backing up and testing tips

[backerupper]

Yeah, sorry if the original message was a bit long and/or confusing, but thank you for the reply.

One other question: I heard of DRM that either currently exists or will soon (can't find information on it now), about if the game is a backed up copy, it will slowly degrade the game overtime while it's running until it's unplayable. That's where my question came in about testing a backed up game. If this DRM exists, I guess I have to play through the entire game to figure out of the backup is any good or not. If it doesn't exist though, and the backup copy installs and launches properly, does that mean everything is OK?
