I have many old PC games that I bought on disk. Lately I have been trying to install and play them on my Lenovo Y510p. When I bought the laptop I went for the SLI option and therefore do not have a disk drive. I bought an external drive (Samsung) that plugs into my USB port. I can open the games and install them but when I attempt to run them they say that they cannot find the disk. I have so many awesome games that are not on steam that I want to play but cannot.

No. I still have them on disc and continue to use then as discs (put the discs into the external). Also could you elaborate on how to use daemon tools because I've tried with power iso and it did not work
