You use Alcohol 120% to burn a .mdf file :)

Install Alcohol 120%>image burning wizard>locate your .mdf file.
Go to Portmac's website and see if the game is cd protected. If so then you may not be able to make a working backup.

You don't drag-n-drop that .mdf file m8. After you choose burning image wizard click next. Here you locate the .mdf file(hopefully you tucked in a folder) you saved on your pc. Burn RAW DAO(if applicable) :)

It's been awhile since I used Alcohol 120% but you may need the .mds file as well. How large (in megabytes) is your .mdf file?

Go to options and enable overburn and try again. You should have a .mdf and a .mds file in the same folder.
