In the latest LangaList is a link to this freebie:-

Virtual CD-ROM Control Panel for Windows XP

For Windows XP - this allows ISO image files to be mounted virtually as CD-ROM devices. This tool is provided by Microsoft Product Support Services but is unsupported by them.

to make it a bit clearer ?

This free program for Windows XP lets you create a virtual CD drive on your hard disk.

The virtual CD program 'pretends' it is a CD drive (even though the files are on your hard drive), so your programs will run as normal.

There are however three restrictions with this free emulator:

1. It only runs on XP.

2. Your CDs have to be converted to ISO files.

Programs like Nero can do it, but there is another free tool for XP that will let you create ISO files - see http://isorecorder.alexfeinman.com/isorecorder.htm

3. Most types of copy protected CDs cannot be used by the emulator.
