    Well, although I am not quite sure as to why you would do this, you can burn the game as selfboot, then rip the CD into a BIN/ISO format (1 session, 1 track). This will still have all the information, but the CD will not selfboot.

    i can't used WinISO because I got a demo version and it say that you have to buy the real thing to make a ISO file, I got no idea how to used ISObuster, how you used it?

    Open ISOBuster
    Open the CD drive or the CD Image
    Right Click Track 1 and select Extract Track 1 then Raw

    Edit Noticed some DC games have track 1 as audio so you need to be extracting the Data Track then

    My guess on why would you want to do this would be to take some of the music files, modify them and put your own music in (ala MvC2)

    Ah, so that's how you do it! I have a version of Crazy Taxi where the normal Offspring etc. soundtrack has been replaced by Deftones tracks. I always wondered about that.
