I need some virtual drive software to store CDs on the hard drive
or something like that. Any ideas???

My 3 year old has a bunch of games he likes to play on his computer, but he, of course, has a hard time switching CDs and for some reason all kid CD games have to be played with the discs in the drive.

Any ideas? As simple as possible. I haven't had much luck with virtual drive software so far.

3. Is this for duplicating CDs?

What I'm actually looking for is something which will install the entire CD on the machine so that I can stop using the CDs altogether.

Edit: Reading more, and this looks like what I need. Thanks!!

Thanks for the tip!

4. Yeah, you can rip a CD image to your hard drive with it...
Then use it to mount as many cd images to virtual drives as you need. That takes up a lot of hard drive space in a lot of cases though (CD images can be up to 700mb), so you might want to keep an eye on that.
