Is there a decent ISO image mount utility out there?

Greetings!

I used to use Virtual CD from slysoft. It doesn't work with Vista

a) Is there anything in Vista that can mount an ISO image?

or

b) A cool app that will let you mount any number of images and re-mount them upon start up.

I've tried a couple and no success

Regards ...

I use PowerISo 3.8 / 3.6, works fine. Daemon Tools 4 Lite is also a good one.

So go and search, my friend.

Alcohol 120% - The best IMHO

Disc-Tools.com - Published Software Download - Pay attention when installing, not to install the dodgy toolbar

Yup, I second that one. Worth the small fee and is constantly updated and improved upon. The licence renewal is a bit of a pain each time a new version comes out...quite frequently..but there are help topics on Daemons forum.

And up to 8 drives!

Daemon tools free version also installs some crapware but is in essence best suit3ed for running images of protected CD/DVD games. Alcohol 51% is the free version of Alcohol 120% but I think Alcohol is quite detailed and has (too) many options for normal use.

POwerIso has the advantage that it can also be used to make ISO-images and read the .daa format that is often used. All other can't...

Do any of these for Vista x64 allow mounting the image by just double clicking on the ISO?



Thanks

I went with the Daemon tools free version. I just didn't choose to install those two search items. Keeps me from searching for Disk #1 to play games! =)

Thanks for the help! I'm still going to take a look at the other suggestions too!
