1)
Hey i have some old lotr battle of middle earth games, and i've had them for several years, still play them from time to time. Now they've basicly gotten really rare and are hard to come by, and my discs are getting very fragile. so i want a way to copy them to either my hard drive or usb or something. without formatting the originals. how can i do that?

2)
And do i then have to write in the verification code whenever i install them?

3)
And can i use the same copy on several computers and then use both computers at the same time (playing with eachtother)

sorry for the bad english, any advice would be very helpful
 



The servers shut down years ago so it would be Lan-play.
 

I'm not to familiar with it, but is it possible to do from w10?
 


Going off what theyeti87 suggested, I have done this very thing with older games that I had on CDs. I personally used an application called powerISO. You can create a virtual copy (.ISO) and then using a virtual drive software it will "mount" this file and treat it as if there was a physical disk in your computer.

powerISO is just one of many applications which let you create and mount .ISO files.
