Vista - Opening iso-files in Vista

IsoBuster and UltraISO work to open ISO files. There aren't really any virtual
drive programs that work in Vista though. There was one, but I can't think of
the name of it ATM.

I've not tried and it doesn't say that it supports Vista.

I just have a feeling it works :-) Then again it might render Vista
unbootable :-)

Or if you don't need mounting tool then WinRAR might do for simple
extraction. Doesn't read UDF though.

The latest Daemon Tools release has the unfortunate side effect of
deactivating Vista. To reactivate Vista, uninstall Daemon Tools. So if you
don't mind uninstalling it every 14 days....... ;o)

Try this one....MagicISO it will at least mount and create ISO files in vista
beta 2, it also will actually show the files in the x64 version (yes there is
more than a readme file in it!)

Were you able to get it to mount images in x64?
I installed MagicISO-which made an ISO image...
I then installed MagicDisc(as Administrator) which is their mounting
program, but it says that "MagicDisc doesn't detenct driver(mcdbus), Please
re-install MagicDisc to re-install MagicDisc Virtual CD/DVD Rom"
