Freelancer is copyprotected dude. (Safedisc 2.70.030).. to be able to use your cd image, you need to emulate such protection. I.e., grab youself DaemonTools and set the emulation type to SafeDisc and you should be set! btw... Freelancer is one hell of a bloddy addictive game dammit! :-)

Thats because you failed to create a perfect backup. What burner do you have?

The image is probably a "modified' version and not a "true image" m8. If you use CDMage>open file>explore the tree directory of the entire cd I'll bet money you'll see a "crack folder".
If so then go to the directory to where you installed the game and make a new folder there and rename Game exe and cut&paste the game exe in that folder. Now copy&paste the no cd exe from CDMage to the game directory and game should play...
