When I wanna start to play the game, I have to confirm my CD-Key in the Steam Browser.. When I have entered my key correctly, Steam asks me to insert my HL2 Copy in the cd/dvd rom..

Is there any ways to bypass this without buying a DVD-rom or borrowing one..
Just get yourself a dvd-rom, they aren't expensive. A perfectly fine dvd-rom can be bought for a mere $30. 16x dvd, 48x cd.
It's not like you will be buying a dvd-rom JUST for HL2. In the future many more games will be released on DVD only.
