If you have backed up your game to a cdr when you put the game in the game will check the disk and if it see"s it as a cdr it wont play your get the error not found insert correct disk something like that it says the way round it is either put the disk in your dvd rom a dvd rom cant do a cdr check it aint a cdrw burner if you aint got one use clone cd and use the option hide cdr you can burn it as a image and mount it to a virture cd rom which is the best option..

If your original game was protected (Scan it with ClonyXXL or A-Ray Scanner to check and identify it) you're in big trouble trying to make it run on a backup CD.
You will need a special software (like Alcohol 120% or CloneCD) AND, depending on the type of protection used , a very good CD-Unit (which is able to read/write P-Q or P-W subchannels data and NOT only the 2352 bytes/sector which form the .BIN/.CUE layout with high precision, to read illegal TOCs, to write DAO 16 or DAO 96)
More, often only one CD of the set (again: identify which one(s) is/are) is protected so maybe you have to use those special things only for one CD so some copies you have already done can be saved instead of throwing them in the garbage can.
