Mount ISO....Suggestions?

[storme]

Hi All

I'm setting up an external hard drive with images of all versions of Office and Windows I come across. NO not for privacy.

I repair peoples computers and run across a lot of people that have "legitimately" lost their disks or got them damaged.

I found a great little portable ISO creator "LCISOCreator" that appears to work well (so far).

But I can't find a simple ISO mount program that I don't have to install to use.

Eventually I'd like to put an AutoIT front end on it so command line would be great but beggars can't be choosers.

So any one got any suggestions?

Thanks

I can't find a simple ISO mount program that I don't have to install to use.

Most of these programs require the installation of drivers, creation of registry entries, and often ask you to reboot the machine.

Folder2iso is very usefull for creation as well

As for mounting in order to create the virtual device i think its gonna be very diffucult unless you install a program

Why not use Daemon Tools Lite

http://www.daemon-tools.cc/eng/products/dtLite

Its an easy version of the all singing all dancing commercial one

there are switches available for a silent install

for eg

/S /nogadget /notoolbar

Check here for details

at least that way its as painless as poss

then just use some autoit magic to mount the iso you want

sounds simple but it prob wont be

And if you want yet another choice for free software, I switched from daemon to Virtual Clone Drive:
