Default alright....virtual drive help.

hello,

can anyone tell me if there is a way to boot from a virtual drive?

like an iso image mounted with poweriso, or daemon tools.

so that i don't need to burn dvd's when i need to burn an image?

thanks.

yes u can use daemon tools to boot .iso .mdf etc images from ur hard drive. as far as using daemon tools which i use, right click daemon tools, got to virtual drive, then device0, mount image then select the location of the image file from ur harddrive.
