I want to copy the contents of two CDs into a folder on my C: drive, and make that folder a 'virtual' drive D:... Is this possible, and if so, how?

Thanks

Me again! A Virtual drive will be part of your C drive anyway.

I didnt think you can write to a virtual drive thought they were read only, i.e. to install stuff from them - but you can obvioulsy load an image onto them. Daemon Tools

depends what you want to do really if you have the image's of the two cd's in a ISO format or simmilar you can place them on your hardrive and then loads that image onto a virtual drive o you could install a cd from your harddrive if thats what you meen get a program called alchol 120% thats good to do that

Well what I want to do is combine the contents of two CDs and make a virtual CD drive, rather than mounting two seperate drives for two seperate ISO images, if that makes sense...
