Did we ever figure out which program was best for mounting Disc Images in Windows 7?

VirtualCD doesn't want to install. I tried MagicDisc but I don't like it. It's too unwieldy.

Any other suggestions?
 
+1 for Daemon tools, just ignore the message saying it's incompatible (refers to previous version).
 
PowerISO installs fine here which, for run-of-the-mill stuff is fine and dandy. But I've got a special case: anyone have insight on one of these that is KNOWN to mount a WarHammer 40k (specifically the Soulstorm expansion) DVD?
 
a-a-a-a-alcohol baby!
120%

Runs perfectly on Win7 Ulti 64. Vitual drive the toot!

Nero 6 had a nifty feature where you load a disk image and make it appear as a drive in Windows XP, but cant find it in Nero 7 on Vista.

working in both of my 64x boxes and all of their XPM's... you must be failing somewhere.

There is a known issue with SPTD 1.58, and Win7 with the lite verion of daemon tools. You can manually download SPTD 1.60, and daemon lite should work. Or you might have a win7 version priour to the 7600/RTM release.

In any case I am happy with CloneDrive so far.
 
Daemon Tools Lite will not install on Windows 7 64 Bit Edition. It gives a warning that there are known compatibility issues. I am not willing to install something that has compatibility issues.

@bdt - PowerISO is not free. I don't want to have to register it. I already bought VirtualCD, just waiting for a compatible version for Windows 7.

@IRG - same with Alcohol 120% - it is not free.

Same with Nero 7... and I don't want all the other bloated features.

Downloaded CloneDrive... will try and install it tonight.

Windows 7 does not have any know compatibility issues with Windows 7. :rolleyes:

roll those pretty eyes all you want :D,
win7 still has compatibility issues with other entities hence it falls under what you just called something that has compatibility issues ;)

nonetheless clone drive 'should' work.
