WOW-Neither cd mate nor clone could make a backup copy of battlefield 1942!!!

[nike33025]

As always, I have kids. I try to protect my gaming investments by making backup copies and using them instead of the original. So, I tried to make a back up copy of Battle Field 1942, which I just purchased two days ago. I used both CD Mate and Clone CD. Neither one of them worked. If possible, please give me some suggestion on how to make all of this work. I wasted a totally of 9 blank CDs trying to get this thing to work, but I finally decided to throw in the towel and see if I can get help. Is there a new security technology that is being used? If so, is there anyway around it. Thanks.
