I wanted to back it up because it's getting old and a bit roughed up, but I can't make an iso because it 'contains multiple tracks,' whatever that means. I'm currently outputting a.bin file instead, but I don't think I'll be able to load that in VMware. EDIT: Oh my god. I just realized that I can run the game directly from the disc without installing.
