application run without CD

I have an application - which is essentially going to be a autorun
menu - but could also involve disc-swapping.

So for this autorun menu - i need the application to either run fully
from memory or something similar - but not need the CDs (since they
will be getting swapped in and out all the time).
So far i thought of making an auxilliary application which copies that
one to the temp folder - then runs it and exits - of course it won't
delete the application and thus just makes a mess of a users computer.
Any suggestions?
Thanks!

Hi,
What you could do is to copy everything to the temp folder, run your app
from a batch file, and have the last line in that batch file delete
everything in the application folder?
