IMG and ISO are the same format. You can rename it. If no help, you can
create a Virtual CD and 'mount' the ISO.
Download and run this exe. Run the VCDControlPanel.exe. Load the .sys
driver, and add a drive (Z). Restart windows, and re-add Z: if necessary,
then 'mount' the ISO, making it 'persist'. Restart to find a new CD drive
that has the files on it. Locate the utility in the resource Kit.
Virtual CD drive download:
http://download.microsoft.com/downlo...olpanel_21.exe
(The TakeOwn utility has no 'd' in it, you typed TakeDown)
