Default running programs with out the CD in the drive.

This thread is NOT about downloading/playing illegally obtained programs.

I just want to know if there is a way I can run my computer games with out having to have the physical CD in the drive. Anyone have any suggestions?

Requiring the CD in the drive is a form of copy protection (since a copy of a disc wont work). Therefore anything that removes this restriction would violate the DMCA and therefore violate our terms of service.
