Hi
I ave a back up copy of who wants to be a millionaire and would like to copy it. When I try to copy it with adaptec it says that the file is to big, so I copied to hard drive first then tried again then adaptec said that it could not read some of the files. I have alsotried using CDRWin but only made coasters. ny help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance

I had the same problem, first of all you need the "fixed exe." file. You then need to create a temp directory and copy the full contents of the cd to the directory. replace the "game exe." and burn back the the temp directory not forgetting to use the exact same label as the original "WWTBAM" or else it won't work. Don't forget to remove the temp dir before installing and playing.

Thanks
Just two questions though.
When you say copy the cd to a temp file do I just drag and drop it there.
Also what program did you use to burn the cd .

before i read yor reply I was trying blind read but it seems that it will ake about 18 hrs to read it!!

glad to hear you finally managed to burn back WWTBAM, I used cequadrat win on cd 3.6 and it works fine with most backups. other programes I use are cdr win and clone cd, and yes clone cd is as good as everyone says if it is used corectly.
