probably yes but clone cd demo is the easiest

Couldn't get CloneCD to work on my laptop (it froze before detecting any SCSI/ATAPI devices). So here's what I did:

1. Downloaded the free version of Nero (Nero 9 Lite -- http://www.nero.com/enu/downloads-nero9-free.php);
2. Made a .NRG image of my MW2 DOS cd;
3. Used a free little software called NRG2ISO, which very effectively makes a .ISO version of the .NRG image.

After mounting the image ("imgmount d mw2.iso -t iso"), it worked perfectly! DOSBOX installation was by far the best solution for me.
