A Free way to Copy a CD to a Virtual Drive?

Hi
I bought legally old Games who I always wanted as a Kid but the require a CD for startup attleast. In my Tablet I put a 512GB Micro SD in.

Is there some free Software who allow me to "convert" a CD into a Iso Image and later on my Tablet use the Iso as Virtual drive so the Game will start up?
Thanks

From AT. :x

Another vote for imgBurn, it can create disc images.

 

If some games have Securom or other protections, they may still check for an actual disc in a unit, or otherwise refuse to accept virtual drives.

 

You can also check sites like gamecopyworld dot com  and download executables with cd check removed / disabled. You'll have to match the version of your game with the executable you download (right click on game executable , select properties, details , version etc etc - if no version is listed there, then check readme files)

You'll also want to run whatever you download through virustotal.com or some other antivirus programs.

Free version of UltraISO has been my choice when needed. Though, some games have issues with it and virtual drives. Don't know if its the game or the software.
