Backup before they become unreadable, since the CD's are old and scratched.

Ouch. Well depending on how big the game is you might be able to copy it to one cd. Just a suggestion.

He said it was a four-CD game.

Well if he gets a disk that can hold that much then it can all be on one disc.

Nope since it specificly asks for CD2, CD3 etc and does not let you do anything like choose the path. Otherwise I'd put it on a DVD.
What I'll do though is if I can't find a workaround I'll just do a RIP (snapshot of the install, basically) of it in a VM and hopefully the rip will be under 4.7Gigs and I can put it on a DVD.
