On *nix systems, at least, you can mount a file containing a byte-stream
image coppy of a disk, as it it were a physical disk. Very handy. Likely
there is a DOS/Windows program that does this.
(I've learned to assume that when people don't state which OS they want
a program for, invariably it's a microsoft product.)

what you want is a RAM-disk program. Those have been shipping with MS-DOS
ever since version 2.11 or thereabouts.
