    In diskcopy, under image, select new image from device. I'm pretty sure that's the most of it.

    FYI: Disk copy is located:



    Hardrive > Applications > Utilities

    Thanks, but I'm not sure which device to choose? There are a couple to choose from.



    Under Mac OS 9, all you have to do is drag the CD on to DiskCopy, what's the deal?

    select the second one down--its your cd drive-



    or take out the cd and see which one disappears.

    4. Click "Image"



    5. Name it clearly and select the file desitination



    6. Click Image again...



    7. Wait while the magic happens..
