Loading Software onto Hard Disk

[Richard]

Hi,
The only way I can get a game to run properly
(Lemmings for Windows) is to put the disk in my D drive
and run the programme compatibily wizard each time
(selecting Windows 95). This is a pain. Is there anyway I
can load and play it directly from my HDD?

Hi Richard,

The software may be designed to run only with the disk inserted, this is an
anti-piracy measure. It *may* be reolved by using a virtual-CD program,
which copies the disk to hard drive then imitates a CD drive, but there is
no guarantee of this.
