One way you could do this is to create an ISO image of the disc in question and then use DAEMON Tools to mount the image to a virtual disc drive.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_imagehttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daemon_toolsNOTE: If the disc is copy protected, the method I'm about to describe might not work.
NOTE2: This is only legal if you own the disc and you should only continue using the image as long as you own the original disc.
You'll need the following tools:
IsoBuster to create the ISO.
http://www.isobuster.com/And DAEMON Tools Lite to mount it:
http://www.daemon-tools.cc/eng/homeYou don't have to buy them, the features available in the free versions are sufficient.
Install IsoBuster, during the install you'll be asked to install the ask.com toolbar. Only do it if you don't mind extra clutter in your browser.
Once in IsoBuster do the following.
Select your disc drive from the drop down menu near the top left corner of the application.
Make sure the disc you want an image of is inserted.
You should now be looking at a screen similar to the one shown in the screenshot below.
Right click the top node shown in the left window pane, the one marked with blue in my screenshot, and select "Extract CD <image>" --> "User Data (*.tao, *.iso)".
Rename the ISO if you wish and save it.
It will also ask you to save a .cue file. You don't really need it so you can just cancel it.
Now you need to install Daemon tools. It will also ask you to install various toolbars and change your search provider, disable these options.
Once installed, right click the DAEMON Tools icon in your notification area (next to the clock on the task bar).
Right click it and select "Virtual CD/DVD-ROM" --> Device 0:..." --> Mount Image.
Select the ISO you've created.
Done.
If you open "My Computer" you will notice a new disc drive. This is the virtual disc drive created by DAEMON Tools. This drive should have the disc you created an image of "inserted".
