    Copy of a Backup

    So, i have my Backup disk of one of my games and i friend of mine asked me to borrow it. Instead of just giving away my games (because we all know that sometimes they don't come back) i decided to make him a copy.

    Now, i never done this before... so... what's the best way to duplicate a Backup? Do i need to rip the ISO and reburn it or can i just Duplicate the DVD with imgburn or nero?

    If i have to rip the ISO... what's the best way to do it with Wii games?

    Make an iso with imgburn, verify it, burn it, verify it.

    You can just do a direct copy with an already backed up game.

    "create image file from disc". Save it to your desktop. Then use imgburn again to burn.
    If I have helped you in any way, please thank me by pressing the little thanks button.

    Guys. Originally, the question was if we can use Nero, and nobody mentioned anything, but this bothering me the most. I found instructions how to burn backup with imgburn, but why I can't use Nero to just burn disc from image? Is there something different? Or I have to burn .iso image on disc and nod disc from .iso image. Please advise.

    and press copy dvd, pop in a bland DVD-R when asked to (burn at the lowest speed)

    Exactly, pop in original backup, open any dvd copy program (including Nero) and do exact copy.

    It will read the game info and then spit that out and request a blank, make sure there is enough room in your temp folder and tell Nero or whatever to delete image after burning otherwise it will just fill up your hard drive with temp images.
