To copy backup games you need DVD Decrypter but you can get it from here anymore so go on this link to get it http://www.mrbass.org/dvdrip/ .You go to decrypter, choose tools iso mode,and read.To backup purchsed games you will need more software.Go here http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/275350 and you will know what to use.And no you cant copy swap magic.

OK DVD Decrypter is the most common program
Alcohol 120% and Nero are 2 others you could use but are
not free like DVD Decrypter.

No you can not back up Swap Magic. Well you can but it is
pointless as you would need an original Swap Magic to boot the
back up copy.

Retail games (bought games) are no different from any other, they are all backed up the same way

here is a DVD Decrypter tutorial
http://home.earthlink.net/~moderator/id3.html

the only time you will run into problems is when a game has a dummy file, needs to be rebuilt/patched, or is a DVD9 (dual layer) which Swap Magic will not play. Read up on burning here and get all your info, it will save you discs for sure. Read up on the best media types as well.
