Easy. Download Alcohol120%. You can get the 1 week trial version at their site. There's other illegal ways to get the full version too but id advise sticking to the legal way.

on the computer with the DVD drive, convert the CD to an .ISO image with alcohol120% and transfer it over to the other computer how ever you can(LAN works the best). If you dont now how to setup a network just send it through Windows Messenger(just drop the file in the window and accept on the other computer)

Alcohol120% is also a CD emulator so once you mount the .ISO image, that computer will think the CD is in the computer. Have fun playing.

Ill take that seal of intelligence now hehe.

Now that is not very difficult as long as the compuyter has enough memory and harddrive as well as a good graphics card.

un plug the CD player and remove it from that machine and install it in the other one. about two minutes or less.

Another way is to go get a five GB memory stick and load the disc in it and then plug it into the other computer.

You can go buy a DVD machine and install it in the computer. They are not very expwnsive.

Run a jumper from the CD machine in one computer to the other.

Load it to the hard drive on the computer if you have enough.

In a nutshell: You can't. You need a DVD-ROM drive for your computer to be able to read DVD discs.

The good news is that DVD-ROM drives are practically dirt-cheap these days (some under $20), so you can replace the CD-ROM drive in your second computer with one (don't worry, DVD-ROM drives can read CDs too) and be on your way!

So where's my seal of intellgence? ;)

I don't have a definite answer, but I reccomend buying a dvd-rom drive for your computer and (if you know how) installing it where your normal cd-rom drive used to be. If you don't, call a friend or computer technician.
