Daemon Tools Windows 98
On this page you can find information about software that will give you virtual CD / DVD drives. This can be handy if you don't want to deal with discs, but mount games locally from your hard-drive. You can also mount games connected to a network share or NAS.
Daemon Tools in Windows 9x
Version 3.47 of Daemon tools is the final version for Windows 9x. This is what I use in my projects. If you get an error message when trying to install, you need to update an installer, just run instmsia.exe, or alternatively, the core updates of the unofficial Service Pack will also do this for you.
To get CD Audio music with BIN/CUE image games, your sound card needs to use WDM drivers. VXD drivers will not work unfortunately. WDM drivers are more stable, but can perform slower (measurable in benchmarks) and cause issues with 3D Audio acceleration.

Alcohol 120%
I use Alcohol 120, which is a free version, to copy / rip / dump my games into ISO or BIN / CUE images. It can detect and identify copy protection and has matching profiles to make good dumps.
