Vcdrom free download

Some visitors to the site have confirmed that it works with Windows too but this is not stated in Microsoft's official readme. For anyone unfamiliar with the terms 'virtual CD' or 'CD emulator', they mean that you can copy the entire contents of a CD-ROM to your hard disk and run the programs or access the files without the need for the original CD.

This can make files more accessible, faster and more convenient. Given the speed and size of today's hard drives, you could easily fit a number of CDs onto your hard drive without noticing the difference. Assuming you had 30 full CDs, these would take around 20GB on a hard drive and all will be accessible after a few clicks of a mouse. Hard drives are about 10 times faster than a CD, plus you can instantly access the file instead of grabbing the CD case, inserting the CD and awaiting for the contents to load.

It's true, you could try copying the files over to the hard drive, but this can get messy, plus some programs require a CD to be loaded in order to run. This virtual CD program 'pretends' it is a CD drive even though the files are on your hard drive , so your programs will run as normal.

I played until I dropped on Sunday and called in sick the Monday. And kept playing when I woke up. Now I can't play on Win I've tried some fixes but can't get them to work. Tried the Civ 2 Multiplayer fixes and no luck there either. I think I'll see if the local PC store has any old boxes Other ideas? Cerran -3 points.

If it's the 16 bit version of the game, it won't run on a 64 bit system, period thanks Microsoft. If the civ2xp64patcher file doesn't help, you have a 16 bit program. Good luck. I figured that one out the hard way. Dave 92 I doubt your tablet will play this Youtube should have plenty of virtual box and Dos Box videos to show how. Marty points. Any recommendations to be able to play this on.

My Surface tablet everything I have tried is failing, surely it can play such an old game. Harambe points. I once spent two days solid playing civ 2 when it was first released. I missed a days work and only stopped playing when I fell asleep at the keyboard.
