Uuuh.. im kinda scared now! I've read the readme's and searched.. I hope im not violating some of your rules.. aaaanyway..

I need help.. wow simple.. well how do i mount an image. I've downloaded Deamon Tools (which i've used before, but for a real long time ago!) whats the procedure?


I've seen something similiar to a procedure in the FAQ thread, but it dosn't describe it in detail, as i need since im really noobish on this particular point.

Thanks in advance

i cannot give you a very detailed account but basically its just a matter of extracting the image from the rar files using winrar, direct it to the first in the set .001 or .rar then extract

now you have your image .iso .img or .mdf ect find the mount option in daemon tools and direct it to the image and it will mount it in the virtualcd/dvd rom


I looked up "gormless" in the dictionary, it said "without gorm" .... so i looked up "gorm" but it wasn't there ????

winrar will find all the other rar files automatically as long as they are in the same directory... its real easy, honest, you only have to open the first in the set and hit the extract button

By installing deamon tools, you get two options. Silent Mode / Logged Mode, which one did you choose?

Is it linked with my problem?? Coz I'm admin on my windows session. Thx Very Happy

extracting:

make sure winrar is installed, right click on ANY of the rar files and press extract here. After a few minutes you will find the ISO image is in the same folder and the rar's.


mounting:

right click on the daemon tools icon, go through the options (cant remember exactly what they are) and mount image. locate the iso.
