I get an extremely slow frame rate with I play the game, like 1 frame per sec.

    Try downloading the TRII Patch. It is intended to resolve the CD problem some users are having when the CD is being accessed continuously, which reduces the frame rate dramatically. This patch addresses no other issues and therefore we recommend that you install this new executable only when experiencing this problem. To get the patch and learn more please See patches above.

When I play the game, my computer is constantly accessing the CD-Rom drive.

I am having trouble with Tomb Raider reading my CD-Rom and I have a multiple CD, CD-Rom drive.
    If you have a computer system with more than 1 CD-ROM drive, or a CD changer - Tomb Raider II runs most efficiently when the TRII CD is in the first CD-ROM drive. The game will run in any of the CD drives, but you may not get redbook CD audio, and you may experience some slowdown. Depending on your hardware configuration, the game will sometimes try to stream data from the primary CD drive. In order to get the best performance, we recommend using the first occurring CD-ROM drive (or slot if a multi-changer) with Tomb Raider II.

TRII couldn't find installation language, and shows an Error 105 message.

Your CD-ROM may be running a Real Mode DOS Driver. To check this, go to the Control Panel, look under Systems, then under Performance Status. If it shows something other than 32 Bit for File System, consult your hardware manufacturer to resolve this.

What is your experience of Virtual CD/DVD drives?

I have a couple of virtual drives that I use all the time.

I have one installed but have never used it.

I'm aware of them but have never needed one.

What's a virtual drive?
