RE: [NF] Mount an ISO CD image as a virtual CD/DVD drive?
If all you want to do is mount a single virutal drive then there may be cheaper options, I use Alcohol 120% from www.alcohol-soft.com $39, I highly recommend it. Loads pretty much all formats, including their own. You can mount up to 31 virutal drives at one time, although I've never had the need for quite that many. I use it on my kids computer to use virtual copies of their game and educational disks - so I can keep the masters safely tucked away and undamamged. My 4-year old son LOVES to handle disks, and once put a Scooby Doo DVD into mommys automatic stapler - now he knows not to do THAT again! ;) Lou -Original Message- From: Malcolm Greene [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Any suggestions on a utility to mount an ISO CD image file as a virtual CD/DVD drive vs. burning throw-away CD/DVD's everytime I need to install from a downloaded ISO file?

DaemonTools are okay, but you need to watch the setup options for'extras'. The unsupported Microsoft tool is my favorite. Its a little more difficult to use, but...given 15 minutes its a snap.
