Mount ISO Files in VISTA

Because this post looks the most popular in this blog, I’ve decidede to update it. After try a lot of ISO tools out there, finally I decided to use WinCDEmu

Once my box is ready, I need to WinSDK. The download format from MSDN is an ISO file, so I need a tool like VirtualCD (but this one works only for XP).

So I found

  Here's an ISO Mounter from Alex Feinman that was recommended from TechNet. http://isorecorder.alexfeinman.com/isorecorder.htm

  I used Virtual CD (You have to run it "as Administrator") on Vista RC2 and it works. Thanks, Reza

  I found that the virtual cd/dvd driver from the MagicIso folks made my machine unstable. I do have the full MagicIso product and love it, but I stick with VirtualCloneDrive for mounting ISOs. (I would love to use the one from MagicIso as it does UIF files.) http://www.slysoft.com/en/virtual-clonedrive.html Jorgie
