max payne/ clone cd back will not play :(

[pysche]

I successfully copied that game by at first right-clicking on the cd drive(with maxpayne in it!)and adding it to a winrar archive(choosing best compression) then getting the NO-CD patch,then i burned it with easy cd creator on a 650mb cd,with was cutting it fine as the disc had 2 megs left!But it works,i know i probably isnt the best way how to go around it but every game i do i do it that way,it is garuanteed to work!Hope it helps..
Many thnx..
Pysche.
