    I have a bunch of scratched disks that i need to back up / make copy's of as i fear they will become unusable - one of which is an XP Disk, others drivers etc.

    Is there software / an easy way this can be done?

    If you make an ISO image you can reburn it, or load the image up from your hard disk using a virtual drive (plenty to chose from, Nero, CloneCD etc)

    Its always worth having disk images on your hard drive, ....
