There are a number of different programs that will let you load CDs on the hard drive so that they emulate a CD drive. I can't tell you a specific name off the top of my head, but I have seen several shareware versions on PCWorld downloads. (http://www.pcworld.com/)

Another option is to uninstall the game as you have it now, copy the CD's to the hard drive, open and install from this copied version. When it askes for the second disk, direct it to the folder the copied version is in. If this does not work, you will need to read thru the .ini file in the installation, find where it directs the game to your CD drive and change it to the copied version location.

Good luck
