breadandbubbles Posted February 12, 2006 Share Posted February 12, 2006 alright, i am an Alcohol 120% user. it works GREAT, and its extremely uncomplicated. i dnt know why anyone would want to use anything else.but then i tried playing a disc image on Black and White. it didnt work, because i was using a virtual cd drive (actually, if anyone knows how to help me out with that, please do. is there a way to save my game to my hard drive so i dont have to use the discs?)so i thought id tr Daemon. see if that would work.and ....MAN. i couldnt believe it.first, after i rebooted, i had probblems. my screen went black. so i rebooted again and it gave me the option to boot with my last known good configuration.after i finally got back into windows, i finished the installation, and alarms started ringing. antivirus programs, spywar programs, firewalls. just....red windows popping up everywhere. apparently, theres adware in Daemon. why would i want that?so now i just use alcohol again.i jsut wanted to take this chance to say that i was incredibely disappointed with Daemon considering everything ive heard. im hoping someone can enlighten me, maybe help me use alcohol to play black and white, or show me a way to play the game off my harddrive.otherwise, tell me why i should like daemon. really, why?

ripken204 Posted February 12, 2006 Share Posted February 12, 2006 daemon tools only includes adware in their "DAEMON Tools Searchbar"you can choose to not install that during installation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrCobra Posted February 12, 2006 Share Posted February 12, 2006 Same old story. Just like with MsgPlus! nobody reads the install screens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bionicman Posted February 12, 2006 Share Posted February 12, 2006 If you have the MS Antispyware onboard it removes the adware before it installs. Daemon doesn't suck but the adware does but I guess they have to fund it somehow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EchoNoise Posted February 12, 2006 Share Posted February 12, 2006 NEXT NEXT NEXT NEXT NEXT NEXT NEXT REBOOTPlease... Read the install screen, and why don't you try using standard ASPI instead of NATIVE!!!It might fix the reboot problem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scubar Posted February 13, 2006 Share Posted February 13, 2006 been a long time user of Daemon, the new version does suck quite bad. i installed it hated it uninstalled and reverted back to the v3 pretty quick. as the saying goes. newer doesnt always mean better.

Jeremy Posted February 14, 2006 Share Posted February 14, 2006 I'm using the latest version of Daemon Tools and have no problems. I just turned all the extra features off and it's not annoying anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
