Virtual CD Drives

Noxious Ninja · September 28th, 2003

What virtual CD drive program, if any, do you use? I personally use Daemon Tools, but I've been trying out Alcohol's virtual drive on another PC, and it seems to work well, too.

Let's see if my poll works this time...

Regulus · September 28th, 2003

I use Alcohol and Tweak-XP mixed. You can have up to 80 with Tweak-KP IIRC.......

Sephi · September 28th, 2003

i use deamon.

weird thing is i got 2 virtual drives ! Does Deamon makes 2 virtual drives ?

JAZ · September 28th, 2003

I use Daemon tools and to be honest I havent tried any of those other options because Daemon works so good I dont feel the need to change it.

Sephiroth[TR] Daemon tools emulates upto 4 drives, you have to choose how many you need.

I used to use Daemon, but then I switched to Alcohol as it's an excellent image reader/writer too.

nf1n1te · September 28th, 2003

Alcohol 120%! ^_^

i dont really have a need for a virtual drive.....yet. i tried nero's imagedrive, i used it for a couple things and it was alright, but not great

didamangi · September 29th, 2003

Alcohol for me, i like how it doesn't need any tray icon to run in the bground.

RZetlin · September 29th, 2003

I use Fantom CD as my virtual CD/DVD drive.

N1ghtw0lf · September 29th, 2003

I have nero, clonecd, and Alcohol but i hate those stupid virtual drives so i just don't use them

Quatro · September 29th, 2003

me use Virtual CD v4... I have Nero too...

zerocopy · September 29th, 2003

fantom and daemon

September 29th, 2003

same as Kane; daemon before, now alcohol.

Chinoz · September 29th, 2003

VirtualCD before, Daemon atm

Noxious Ninja · September 29th, 2003

Hmm... I don't guess I can edit my own poll...

Can a mod add "Fantom CD", "Virtual CD", and "Other", please?

Sephi · September 29th, 2003

uhm i got 2 virtual drive and im sure one isnt from my deamon tool cos i disbled all drive and i still got a virtual drive

does disk juggler makes virtual drive ? or CDRwin.

im quit sure my clone cd and my Roxio easy cd creator didnt created a Virtual drive.

DoktorSeven · September 29th, 2003

mount -t iso9660 -o loop /path/to/isofile.iso /mnt/cdrom

September 29th, 2003

hm. is that a tool built in with most distros, doc?
I'm playing around with Redhat linux nowdays...

DoktorSeven · September 30th, 2003

mount is a tool included with all GNU/Linux distros. To mount the ISOs though, iso9660 and loop device support must be in the kernel. (Fortunately, it is in most distros.)
