If your drive is kaputt, use a flash drive. If this is an upgrade, mount the image then install.
Trust me, Microsoft has probably already made AP to deactivate versions installed like this. Also, each CD key is tailored to a specific disk. So, if you used your bought key on a torrented version, it won't work.
Vlad, you should buy a new CD drive, if it's really dead. They're easy to install yourself if you read the instructions, and you can get a decent one for really cheap.
i liek turtelz xd
I'm assuming you're running it on a virtual machine. I suggest you format your HD and install win7 OR, if possible, you can upgrade and make all your files go to a new folder on your drive. Running two OS's, that is one on startup and one on a virtual machine, severely slows down your computer.
hmmm...then ask a friend to burn a disk for you? owait....damn.
Well, then just buy a new dvd drive. They really aren't expensive now. I got a new one last week for 20 bucks after mail in rebate. You're gonna need it eventually anyway.
