If you insist on Win32, I believe something called "MagicISO"

shareware 30$. (I've not actually tried it /w Irix disks, so YMMV)
But the Linux method is the free one. Just use something fairly
modern /w read-write NTFS support (if you need it) in the rescue image,
and do the cat/dd route.
hello,
I need help making backups of my valuable IRIX media. I have heard that you
can use CDRWIN, and i did, which made a decent backup, except I couldnt boot
from the copy, and CDRWIN wont work properly on my laptop. is there any good
windows based program that would copy and image my IRIX media and keep them
bootable? if none for windows, i do have ubuntu linux loaded, although not
compatible with my network devices so it is rarely used and cant download
things. thanks!!

The easiest way to dump them to images would be to use "cat /dev/cdrom >
image.iso" or similar in a shell under Linux.
