create disk ISO from copy protected CD.

[craig]

I'm currently learning to drive. As part of the UK driving test everyone has to take a thory test which comprises of a multiple choice questionaire and a hazard perception test. To aid me with learning them I purchased the official DSA set (link). The set is 2 DVD roms and 1 CD-Rom. To cut a long story short when using the 'thory test' disk to practice the exe that it installed is contantly accessing the CD-Rom in the drive and lagging when it does. What I want to do is create an ISO, mount this with daemon tools, and run from a virtual drive. I tried using Nero to create an ISO, but all it gave me the option of creating was an NRG file, which Daemon doesn't seem to recognise.... are there any tools out there that you guys know of that can copy this disk to ISO so that I can use it as described above?

Use clone-cd or something similar, pretty self-explaining once you've installed it... Maybe with a little dash of Clony-XXl or whatever the newest version is...

Try DVD shrink:

Magic ISO should do the trick too. Think it's free.
