Riddle of the Sphinx

I have this old game called riddle of the sphinx. It is a multidisk game, and I would like to play it without a CD. I feel like i am getting closer, but after 3 days I have run out of ideas. I dragged the contents of discs 2 and three into the game directory. I know the game is reading them, because when the files are in there the please insert CD error does not appear. However, the game instantly freezes. I really would like to get this game to work, without a CD, so if anyone has any advice at all please let me know.

I have also tried making my own CD crack, but using W32Dasm I can never find anything relating to the error message about inserting a CD.

edit: there is no protection after scanning with PEID, and this setup.exe will install and get to the error I think that all i need to do is make it not check for the CD when it needs CD 2, and also to not check for the CD at 3, but I am not sure if i will also need to find a way to redirect it to the application directory to look for the files that were on the CD. If there is some other way to make it no CD i would love to know. I thought about DAEMON tools, but I still wind up having to mount and unmount CDs when going between rooms, and it is quite annoying. If CD cracks are against the rules, then a mod should delete this. But i am not using it illegally, just looking for convinience lol, plus if i can make this work I can make this bad boy portable =)
