Can't create new disk image of MS Office 08 for Mac - error.

[DJP]

Hey all -

I am trying to create a back up disk of MS Office 2008 for Mac from the installation CD and I'm using the Disk Utility New Image. However, when I nearly reach the end of the process, Disk Utility states, that there was an input/output error and that it could not complete the copy. I've looked everywhere, and while people have had the same issue, there hasn't been a solution. Any thoughts? Thanks.

My thought is why even use Disk Utility to create a backup image of your Office 2008 CD? Just about every decent burning program both for OS X and Win can easily create an ISO from the original.

Could you recommend any free ones that I could download and use?
