Virtual cd drive
mookaloid - 10/4/11 at 10:37 AM

Can anyone recommend some virtual cd drive software? I have several things that won't run without the cd in the drive and want to get round this.

I have done a bit of googling and there seems to be several things but it's hard to tell what's good and easy to use.

Free would be good too

Cheers

Mark

What's the difference between the free version and the one you pay for?

I think the one you pay for can create/edit iso files etc. whereas the free one is just a virtual drive and no more.

This works well and it's Freeware.

Iideal for loading game cd .iso's onto netbook.

I use 'Virtual Clone Drive' from SlySoft (link) and it's probably the best I've ever used. And it's free.

Edit: Damn too slow again!
