You will have to create an iso of the disc using a tool like Nero.You will be able to run the iso,or the image of the disk on a software like daemon tools(http://www.daemon-tools.cc/dtcc/download.php?mode=ViewCategory&catid=5).

If a program's executable file or setup / install files are not saved to the harddrive, no, the program will not run without the disk in the disk drive.

You can make a CD image of each disk, then mount them into a virtual drive (like Daemon Tools) to run them.
Some games require that the game disk be present in the drive to play. Other games do not require this. The only way to circumvent the need for the disk to be present is to go on the internet and search around for a cheat that will allow the game to be played without the disk.
Buy your games from Steam at steamcommunity.com or from Direct2Drive.com. You can purchase and download your games instantly with these two programs. No disk required!

There are NO games that run without a Video card. Nor any computer that run games without a video card. This is because without a video card you cannot get a picture to show on your monitor.
If you are attempting to run a program like a game without the disk, then it is just telling you that it needs the .exe trigger on the disk. This way the program will run. However, if the disk is in and you get the same message, then your computer's disk drive is not reading the data on the disk and should be replaced. I don't recommend that you do this yourself unless you have studied computer sciences.
