You'll need an imaging program like Ghost, Drive Image, etc.

Hi Jennifer. What he wants to do is copy the programs onto a DVD and have them install themselves, not just make a copy to transfer onto another Drive. He said it can be done, although I have never heard of it, or read about it. Thanks anyway Jennifer. Have a real nice day.
May the force be with you.

Does he actually want to run the software from the DVD? I guess I'm confused, because if I understand this correctly, what he wants to do isn't possible.
