I have a game that needs the disk in the drive to be played and I want to know how to make it so i have a virtual drive to put it in so it looks like the disk is in but its just a virtual one?

Install the ISO maker.

Run the program to create an image file that is identical to the disk.

This iso image can then be 'mounted' so it will look as though you have another disk drive attached to your computer.

Install clone drive to 'mount' the iso you created from your disk.

Final notes:

The computer will treat the mounted iso image as a regular DVD/CD Drive and your game will do the same. You might have to make some changes like reinstall the game from the virtual disk in order for it to 'like' that Drive.

ready to use out of box

no separate components

Cons: hard or impossible to upgrade/repair

prone to overheating

inferior sound quality

more expensive

How was the Y2K bug solved?

The "Y2K bug" was nonexistent. It was a hypothetical problem that arose from complete ignorance of how computer systems work.

Another comment:

There were numerous bugs in specific programs, but none caused problems as serious as were feared in the worst-case scenarios of the day. One reason there were so few problems happening on January 1, 2000 is that companies started working on fixes as early as the 1980s. This did absolutely need to be done. Many programs were initially written at a time when (1) the year 2000 seemed ages away in the future; and (2) memory on early computers was expensive and used as efficiently as possible. Thus two-digit years were used, and in some cases a one-digit month (From January to December represented as 1234567890-&).

One very simple example of a problem that had to be prevented is how your insurance company calculates your age. If you were born in year 85, as Y2K approached you would be 98-85=13, then 99-85=14, then 00-85=negative 85. Probably some models of computers would not have been able to open files actually created a month ago (in December 1999) but appearing to be created 99 years and 11 months in the future.

It was not a nonexistent problem. It was a problem successfully dealt with by thousands of man-hours of work expediently finished.
