Copying a installed game to another computer won't work. The only game I can remember right now that this will work with is WoW.
Anyways one CD key per computer so if you don't have the a legal copy of the CD forget it. You can copy the contents of the CD to your HDD.
Did you lose the original CD or something?
If you want to buy a rare game I'd suggest going here

I saw some games that are very hard to find retail stores. You could try ebay too.

Hi outlaw0069.
Mind telling us what the game is named? It will help to know what we are working with.
If this is some type of internet game you have downloaded, it should come in the form of an .exe file. You can burn this straight to a blank disc using a variety of programs (so long as you have a CD/DVD RW).

Those should be saved as an .exe file to your computer when you download them.
As I said, there are many programs you can use to copy those to a disc with. Nero is a popular one.
If you don't have a blank disc or don't have a CD or DVD burner, you can use a USB 'thumb' drive. They are quite cheap, reusable and available pretty much everywhere.

Big Fish offers 2 way to download the games, even Trial versions or full versions,
if you downloaded the Trial versions its useless to burn them to CD cause there is a time limit to play the games, and if you have bought the games online, I don't know if Big Fish allow the use of their games on more than one PC
