I am looking for some software which will let me set up directories on my
harddrive as drive letters and will fool my games into thinking that the
drive is the CD Rom.  I have software which sets up a directoy as a drive
letter but it won't fool the games.

My 4 and 5 year old kids  misplace game disks or scratch them up and always
need help getting the games going.  With the low price of drive space I'd
like to just install and run from the drive, but so many games require the
CD rom and will only run from it.
