So I'm currently using PowerISO v3.8 as my virtual drive manager, but it isn't preforming to my expectations... I think it fails to mount .iso files correctly because I've used an older version and it worked masterfully, but this one I select all the options I want, "1 drive" , "drive f--> mount whatever.iso" and I select mount but it doesn't show in the central display box... But when I try to mount it again in the dropdown it says it is mounting whatever.iso. Could the be a compatibility issue with my new vista and PowerISO or virtual drives together? or is the software malfunctioning?

Oh also, i've tried two separate .iso files, both of which I copied using PowerISO. Could the copy function be corrupt?? Idk i'm just throwing out ideas.

Help please! :help:

oh ps, I check mycomputer after mounting, and it doesn't show the drive with the cd like it did on my xp desktop...

Try a different virtual drive like daemon tools or alcohol %120.

http://www.daemon-tools.cc

If it doesn't work with daemon tools then try this program:

I don't know if it works but their claim is such that it repairs or rebuilds corrupted sectors of ISO's.

ok... I dl'ed several of the listed softwares, and none of them preformed... Does this mean PowerISO copied the disks incorrectly?? Is there anyway DAEMON can copy disks? I'm unfamiliar with the interface? lol

Still isn't working... No more help???
I tried changing the virtual drive but that didn't help... I tried daemon tools and alcohol 52%, and either it's not copying right or it isn't reading right... Could someone post a working image file so I can see whether it's the reading or righting that's having issues??

Your files are obvously corrupt, or Vista will not allow them.

Same way you fix a broken cd. Get a new one.

If you want to just create the image based off of a disc you already have, use imgburn. Google it.

Ultra ISO is good at making them, and I used to use WinISO.
