    Is there a way to make a Self-Extracting file from a computer game cd?

    1. Games have copy protection, there are very specific ways of backing this up. See http://forums.afterdawn.com/forum_view.cfm/38 for more information. Essentially, a self-extracting archive will not do the trick.

    2. WinRAR, WinACE and WinZIP all have self-extracting capabilities.
