playing games on vista without disks.

Does windows vista run games without disks? If not then how do you get them
to do so? Does GameDrive 9 (PC) work on vista?

gamecopyworld.com has patches and cracks for not using the disks. I
haven't tried drive emulators yet.

The latest version of Alcohol 120% works with Vista. Though it doesn't seem
to work with most of the new DVD based game disc (aka can't correctly
emulate them) I know it's just a matter of time before I kill by BF2142 DVD.
