Try Virtual CD (http://www.virtualcd-online.com/) This could do what you require.

The claims are as follows :-

No more CD swapping
200x speed and noiseless CD access
Access multiple CD applications simultaneously
No more piles of CDs lying around, getting scratched or lost
Supports almost any CD/DVD format
Network access to your CD archive
Support for Terminal Server/MetaFrame environments
Virtual CDs are password-protected from unauthorized access

You could also try Alcohol120% or CloneCD.

Clone cd and daemon works on old games but not on the latest. (I havent tried 3.29, I have 3.26) Just download individual no cd cracks from kazza etc.

Yeah i use clone cd and daemon tools also. Never had a problem my roommate says daemon tools doesn't work but what does he know. I have over 40 gigs of ISO's i love not having to swap out cd's every so often. Less chance in scratching them.

@ LT. Max i've never had a problem with daemon tools and bf1942. Are you using the newest version? Dont know the newest one of the top of my head.

Let me get this straight you create a img of a DVD? if so how much storage do you have? And why dont you just rip them to a divx format? Or do you rip them from the DVD to a AVI format then img that? I could of read that wrong i'm tired as hell and only have 30 min left here at work.

deamon is way better. (it kinda needs to be coupled with CloneCD though
