Default Virtual CDs and Copy righting

I have 2 kids, and of course each wants to play the same game (on different
PCs) and the same time, so I got VirtualCD v5. However when creating Virtual
CD's from BBC CD's (such as tweenies) it fails to run the game (others
work);

I have followed the vendors instructions requesting the software read the
raw as well as the data areas on the original, but to no avale. It doesn't
copy the copy write details to the virtual CD.

Can anyone give some "constructive" advice?

Thanks

CD's that don't play are protected.

Someone may have already suggested this but I believe the program
alcohol 120% can handle protected CD's. I believe they have a trial
version, too.

You could also try something called "Daemon Tools" which you can get from
http://www.daemon-tools.cc/portal/portal.php oh and to top it all it's
freeware
