Are there any patches Windows 8.1 support? - doesn't run

I recently purchased this for PC from eBay but, because it is old, it is not running on my windows 8.1 PC.

 

First of all my Windows 8.1 PC has no DVD drive. I made an ISO from the CD using my other PC and copied it to my Windows 8.1 PC using a USB stick.

 

When I run it after installation (full install) it fails to load saying that the Test Drive Unlimited DVD is not inserted even though the ISO is mounted. I downloaded a no CD patch and then it loads but I want the superb soundtrack.

 

So, I uninstalled, reinstalled it again from ISO and used YASU to hide the optical drive (even though my PC does not have one). Now, when I run the game it says:

 

This application is not compatible with the installed operating system.

Please upgrade to Windows 98SE, Windows 2000 or better.

 

Compatibility mode does not solve it. How can I play the game using the ISO I have mounted?

 

Furthermore I have a Logitech F430 USB joypad, how can I get TDU to detect and use that?

 

Many thanks - Ian
