can't run mounted ISOs properly...

[Wolf_Demon]

the reason i post this here is because i've only had this problem on XP and not any other OS. i usually make ISOs of my games and put them on my hard drive so i do not have to change cds when i want to play a game. i use Alcohol 120% for this. always worked for me on 98SE and 2000. but on xp, i can mount it fine, and install it fine, but when i try to run the game, it tells me to insert the disk, when it is already mounted on a virtual drive. what's causing this? is there a setting i need to have on to be able to do this or something?

*edit*

it also happens with Daemon Tools

is the cd label of your iso the same as the cd label of the actual cd?

if there is a difference, it may not run.

i don't see how that affects it....i used the same ISO on windows 2000 for Roller Coaster Tycoon 3...and it worked then.

some programs like microsoft streets and trips checks the cd label for the correct cd. i tried it with a different label and it wouldn't work. then i changed the label and it worked.
