I wona do something like this, use a NAS box to store original program/game cd/dvd's etc... all accessable and installable across a network. Problems being content that requires the discs to be in the actual drive before loading and i dont want to use cracks to disable cd protection. Iam not upto date but i remember a program that creates virtual drives to trick the software into thinking the disc is physicaly in the drive. Nowadays even the software is resistant to this.


Any ideas.

I use Daemon tools to mount my images locally, not sure how it would react across a network. I suppose if you had a linux server you could set up a samba share and store your ISO's there and mount them that way? Im assuming that would work, I may try that myself.
 
Why are you opposed to using No-CD hacks? Most of the games that I've found (not all, but most), once you use a CD-hack you can move the entire folder from computer to computer without running into install problems.
 
You can use either daemon tools or alcohol 120% both can access images across a network.
