Well your best bet would to get a piece of software called Alcohol 120%. It allows you to rip pc games regardless of their protection scheme. It then allows you to mount (a.k.a insert) the resulting "virtual cd" into a virtual drive. Alcohol 120% makes this process fairly easy. If you have mounted a game and a window pops-up asking for the correct cd/a cd you will need to do 1 of two thins. 1. make sure the option to use RMPS is enabled in the options menu and if that doesnt work then 2. get a no-cd/no-dvd crack for that particular game. If you need me to be a little more indepth with this just ask.

You can also use this site to download the no cd crack if available or use gamejackal to make one yourself.

At BigDK yeah I didnt really think to mention GameJackal.
Is that all it does? Create a no-cd/dvd crack? I never really thought about how the program works as I use Alcohol 120% and never cared to look into the matter.

Heres a couple dependable game crack sites . . .
