That depends upon the game. If the game allows, which I doubt, you can copy the files to several floppies on another computer. Then you might be able to copy them from the floppies to a specific and empty partition on your hard drive. After that, you might be able to download the game using the partition as though it were a DVD drive. It worked once on an unprotected program using WIN 95. I haven't tried it more than once or with any other operating system. The game cannot be protected. All files and folders need to be kept in order. The information on the partition needs to look like an exact copy of the DVD. Also, if the game runs from the DVD, which many do, you will need to maintain that partition as a DVD drive. What that means is that you just lost that partition to a dedicated process. No more use as storage. Again, I doubt this will work for you due to anti-copy processes and the number of floppies required. There is also the option of intranetting or networking your computer to another computer which has a DVD drive. Then just copy from one computer to another. This option is much faster and more reliable than using the many floppy disks. Again, it probably will not work due to copy protection. Good luck.

If the game you want is on a DVD, then you're not going to be able to install it. Also, if your computer is so old that it only has a floppy drive, you're not going to be able to play any games made in the last few years anyway.

Direct2Drive is your best bet. You can purchase games in their entirety and download them directly off the internet.
