Need an ISO mounting program

[Tripredacus]

My server is up and running and I need to install the newest OPK. But our download of it won't install after burning it because of CRC errors. We have tried multiple times to burn it and also redownloaded it. I did get it to install on another computer using the Virtual CD Rom Control Panel. That was on 2003 x86. The Virtual CD Rom Control Panel does not work in Server 2008 x64. When I go to load the driver, a message comes up saying that the driver has been blocked. I have also tried running this as Administrator (elevated) but no change.

So is there any programs that I can mount an ISO file to a mount point in 64bit Server 2008?

Offhand as far as "permantly owned", no. However, you always have the alternative, albeit temporary, to get a Nero Trial (30 days?) that works with 64-bit and use ImageDrive.

...and FWIW, the source for VCD is available (somewhere) for any soul that wants to attempt to modify it to work with 64-bit.

edit - maybe WinImage as well (?).

When running on Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows 2003 Server or Windows Vista, WinImage can collaborate with the FileDisk driver to mount disk images. FileDisk is a virtual disk driver for Windows 2000/XP/2003 Server/Vista that uses one or more uncompressed images files to emulate physical disks. FileDisk can mount uncompressed FAT images (.IMA images of floppy, removable disk or hard disk partition) or ISO CD-ROM/DVD images.

Try ImDisk. http://www.ltr-data.se/opencode.html#ImDisk

Read the section about testsigning mode.

Hmmm... post link given above seems to indicate potentially additional operations to "get things working" as well, in any case (don't have 64-bit myself).

I didn't know about ImageDrive. I see it now in the Program Files. I have access to full versions of Nero actually. I will try to see if our copy of Nero 8 works with it then. Thanks a lot.

VirtualCloneDrive - http://www.slysoft.com/en/virtual-clonedrive.html

Have not tried it in Server 2008, but it works great in Vista x64.

My Nero 7 has it, but the license I use does not let me open it. And it is not part of my Nero 8 install either. I'll may try one of the other ones posted here but first I have to uninstall Nero 8 and then I'm going to try DaemonTools first.

Have you tried Daemon Tools? http://www.daemon-tools.cc

I know it works under Vista and is 64 bit compatible.

WinRar will also open an ISO.

Adding - MagicDisk (MagicIso Freeware) -

http://www.magiciso.com/tutorials/miso-mag...sc-overview.htm

Appears to support all OS from Win98 thru Win7, both x86 and x64...

[Tripredacus]

Update: Daemon Tools worked just fine. I couldn't uninstall Nero 8, and had to use their cleanup tool to remove it.

Now that I have the OPK installed, I can start making 64bit Win PE! I'm pretty excited!

I've used this successfully on Server 2008...32 and 64 bit.
