Best Virtual Drive Software

post #1 of 22
Thread Starter 
What is the best virtual drive software to use? I read at Google that Alcohol 120% and Daemon Tools are using a driver (sptd.sys) that is known to be the main cause of BSODs for most users.

I'm looking for a software that can mount 3D Bluray ISOs. Thanks for the help in advance smile.gif

I use phantomCD and it's great. Used to use daemon tools, switched to phantomCD maybe a year ago and haven't looked back! Has good windows 7 integration, just right click to mount.

When asking BSOD sufferers to 'lose' DaemonTools and other suspect virtual drives as part of the basic troubleshooting procedure, I suggest MagicISO as a replacement.

You can mount with imdisk: http://www.ltr-data.se/opencode.html/

If it is a .iso file it can mount it...

Try it. Install, then right click your file, then click Mount as ImDisk Virtual Disk.
