Virtual CD Control Panel for Vista

Is there a Vista equivalent of "Virtual CD-ROM Control Panel for Windows
XP"
(http://download.microsoft.com/downlo...olpanel_21.exe)
?

I downloaded DVD image of Visual Studio 2005 from MSDN but can't install
without a DVD mount. I can burn it on a DVD as well but don't have any
right now.

There is no such tool from MS available for vista.

Try "virtual clone drive", freeware and works 100% on vista.

I use this too to manage my isos -

Hi Arun,

Daemon Tools can mount the disk:

Cool, this worked very well!

"Virtual CD Control Panel" allows to add a drive, mount but still does
not show the drive in Explorer. This tool just associates directly with
..iso, .img and other extensions and makes it really simple and intuitive
to use.

Thanks,
-Arun

It shows here. It has always had some problems, sometimes with either Z
drive letter or 1st drive mounted (once I knew why but no longer). I always
create a dummy drive (Z then the one I intend to use. However both show in
explorer.

Be aware that Deamon tools can conflict with your burners drivers.

This actually does work with Vista 32-bit. I've been using it while waiting
for Nero ImageDrive to be fixed for Vista.
