O.P. help with windows vista
a long time ago i downloaded some games and they are disc images. and i tried to install alcohol 120% and deamon tools. they both give me a erroe that i have to grant the progrm and i have no idea permission to be used and i have no clue how to, also i went to the alcohol 120% forum and they said that windows vista does not support it yet.


so is there nother way to mount the images, with out have to burn them?


thanks

No, just open the installer, it should ask you to restart to install the SCSI (or whatever :P). Then you restart, then upon boot it loads the installer and installs Daemon Tools.

Worked fine for me (Vista RTM Ultimate)

The latest versions of Daemon tools and Alcohol 120% are perfectly compatible. If you're facing problems, Compatibility mode solves them :)
