I'm trying to mount a disk image so that I wont have to have the CD in to play a game.
I downloaded daemon lite but it tried to install a million bullshit things with it, and my computer was having a lot of hiccups until I uninstalled it. Is there a CLEAN program out there that can mount ISO files on W7 x64?
It's important that this be clean because it's my workstation.
Last year my nephew put 7 PRO on my computer.Now I want to reinstall and start from scratch but don't know how he did it.I remember he download a program, rightclick and Mount. Anyone know of a program for this.He gave me a copy of 7 burned on a dvd.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm running Daemon Tools Lite, and have a conceptual problem. If I create a virtual disk, and then mount an .iso image of an OS on it, and then click on setup.exe to install the virtual OS, Windows 7 triggers a UAC warning.I don't understand why anything happening on the virtual disk would be subject to the host Windows 7's settings. It makes me fear that I'm not actually virtual, though the drive path certainly looked virtual.

I know mount and unmount are not commands btw, I just wanna know the difference.
is mounting/dismounting a drive same as putting it into online/offline and why not if so.

View 9 Replies View RelatedHow I got in the current state is a looong story! But I have a new 2TB drive (~2 weeks old) that appears to have 3 partitions on it:
a) "New Volume", 80GB NTFS, Primary, healthy
b) "Local Volume", 0 bytes Not Formatted, Primary Healthy
c) 1.741TB Unallocated
My problem is I didn't create and don't want the "Local Volume" partition. But just about everything I try in Acronis Disk Director either crashes it or says "internal error".I've given up on the data. Is there anything I can do to get this drive back to its original usable state?I'm running Win7 x64 (and I suspect its repair utility caused the corruption).

2nd. Restarted Computer
Then when it loads up I get a Windows Error Recovery screen. saying.Windows failed to start. A recent hardware or software change might be the cause.If Windows files have been damaged or configured incorrectly, StartUp Repair can help dianose and fix the problem. If power was interrupted during startup, choose Start Windows Normally.if not etc. choose Launch Start Up Repair ( Recommended )When I choose the first option ( Launch Start up Repair ), what happens is, it first says Windows is loading files.Then it will just turn into a black screen with no cursor and nothing on it.Will stay that way until I force reboot once again.When I choose the second option ( Start Windows Normally ) , when I do this, it moves to the Starting Windows screen that's black with the Microsoft logo, and stays there for a couple minutes until it will eventually Restart itself back to the Windows Error Recovery screen with the 2 options.These are the two issues, and I have no idea how to start up my computer normally again, which is very frustrating b/c most of my work is on this laptop, and not backed up.I'm using a Windows 7, 64bit Laptop.I cannot restart the computer in safe mode.
So I just successfully did a custom download to Windows 7 64 bit from Windows Vista 32 bit.
I'm trying to delete the windows.old folder but when I use the disk cleanup default application Windows 7 gives you (cleanmgr) no where in the list does it show old windows files. So why can't I delete them from disk clean up? Is there any way to make it so I can?
Also I've already downloaded many things on my computer since I got Windows 7 up and running again and I hope when I do a disk cleanup and delete the windows.old folder it won't also delete the new programs I've just installed.
how tricky it is to keep a clean install on Windows I'm wondering if i could ask some advice?
I will have the OS and programs on the ssd, let's call that c: and data on a regular hd, d:
If after time my c: has become bloated with appdata, unused folders in the users folder etc. How can I revert c: back to it's original state without changing d: ?
Can I do this with a restore point, or do I need another piece of software?
first time installer of an SSD here! I'm extremely excited to pop this bad boy in mainly for a faster overall boot of my computer. Recently, my friend gave me his Crucial M4 64GB SSD, which I am very thankful for. I plan mainly to put Windows 7 64-bit on it and that will be all. I was reading this guide: (SSD - Install and transfer the Operating System)
Once I opened up the command prompt, I did all the processes stated until I got to, "Clean" for whatever reason, after typing in the command a prompt came up that stated:
"Virtual Disk Service Error: Clean is not allowed on the disk containing the current boot, system, pagefile, crashdump, or hibernation volume."
So, what I'm asking is there anyway I can bypass or fix this problem so I can continue the process of putting Windows 7 on the SSD? And another question is, would it really be worth buying the $20 program that the guide offers?
I have Vista Ultimate installed today. I intend on buying Windows 7 Home Premium upgrade. I would like to install 7 on a new WD Caviar Black I just ordered as a clean install.
1) Is this possible or will Win 7 flag this as a new install because of the new HD and not let me proceed since I plan on buying an upgrade disk?
2) If not, what options do I have?
3) If I can do this, can I plug my old drive in as Drive D: or E: to transfer the data over?
I've done this before, but can't remember how to now. I have a folder which contains the contents of a CD. I'd like to run this cd without actually burning this img to a cd. I know there's away to use magiciso to run the files as if from a cd without requiring burning the image.
View 9 Replies View RelatedGuys my first post and I have looked at the tutorials just wanting to clear up a few things. I have Windows Vista Home 32 Bit and upgraded to Windows 7 Pro 64 bit. I installed a new HDD at the time as I wanted Windows 7 on that instead of on the Vista drive. That has left me with the little issue of the product key not being valid, as I didn't install on the top of the older system.
Now I will need to activate it at some point and have just come across the forum and your excellent tutorials, now you have linked to Paul Thurrott's guide and he mentions a double install method which is supported by Microsoft. I would prefer this route as it looks easy, and less likely that I will do it wrong. My main questions are when I installed Windows 7 I stupidly clicked the Activate Online thing. Will double install or any of the other methods still work? Will the double install lose all my upgrades I have had to make to get all my devices working?
not to bothered but would prefer this not to happen as it took me 3 days to do my drivers and various other installs to get back to being able to run fully. Anyway so far I am very impressed by Windows 7 and well Vista will never be used again and once I have this little issue sorted I may well be getting rid of vista of my other HDD.
Just one final question how much RAM can I install now that I am running Windows 7 64 bit, I currently have 2gb (1gb per channel for processor). I know what type to get but what is the Maximum it will take for the OS. Anyway I know it is Christmas and not to fussed if I get a reply tonight or tomorrow, I hope some one can help me. Finally I would like to wish everyone a Merry Christmas.
just wondering, is there a way to make a previously installed windows boots on a different PC? (i tried that this morning with win xp sp3, but it freezes at start-up and doesn't boot, i can choose to run safe mode, but it freezes there too.. so i ended up reinstalling windows again for that new PC)
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have some ISOs where whenever I mount them and select "Play DVD" in the autoplay menu, an Error box comes up with the message "E:/ Application not found" This also happens if I doubleclick on the DVD or right-click and select play.
However, If I open Windows Media Player and access the DVD though it, the movie plays fine.
I don't now what I did to cause this, maybe when I took out my video card (but I don't know if the problem popped up at the same time). It use to work perfectly fine.
I have been trying to mount a NFS shared to my Windows 7, but every time I try: mount \serverfolder *It says: Network path not found (error 53) I check the server and folder names and they are fine, so do you have an idea what can be causing this problem?

View 2 Replies View RelatedIs it possible to install Windows 7 (to a different hard drive/partition) by mounting the iso, but then not have it install a boot loader? Obviously you'd have to be using a pre-existing OS to be mounting the iso file, but I can't seem to think of a way for it to not install a boot loader.
I know it's possible to install and then afterwards remove all the boot loader stuff, but it's just a hassle to boot into the DVDs and do all the rebuildbcd or fixmbr stuff.
Also I am aware I could just burn the iso to DVD and install it from that in order to not get a bootloader, but I'd like to know if it's at all possible via mounting the iso.
I was wondering if there was a program to mount .img's in a virtual drive in Windows 7. There were several in XP that I used but I have learned there are a lot of compatibility issues in Windows 7. Is there one that any of you use?

View 6 Replies View RelatedI am looking to start a small business removing Virus's and also spyware. I know I could just hook up their Hard drives to my PC and scan them that way and I may be able to hook their PC to notebook and scan their PC, not sure if I could do that.
But I was hoping there may be a very good antivrus program that I could just run from a CD or DVD before it boots into windows or maybe from a Thumbdrive.
It would also be great if there was a very good Spyware program that could be ran the same way.
I really don't want to remove their hard drives to do this unless I have to.
I would enjoy building PC's to sell but can't see were I could make any money doing it.
I know this is a simple question, but how do I make a backup copy of a new program disk in Windows 7... which I am allowed to do (according to the terms and agreement)? I want to do this so I have a backup in case the original disk fails.
