True, alot of people make clones of their purchased games...

Exactly....I run 2 VeliciRaptors in a RAID0 and like to run my PURCHASED games from the RAID0 instead of my cd/dvd drive. I am running Win_7 x64bit and I have tried almost all of the ones mentioned in this thread, and none of them were able to successfully mount an image of one of my games. VirtualClone and a few others work, but they cannot handle the game's copy protection like DaemonTools or Alcohol could (I used to run Alcohol52 to run my games.

However, what really sucks is that Punkbuster does not work with Win_7 either, so even when I try to play using my dvd, Punkbuster keeps kicking me from playing (2142 for the most part).

Windows 7 support is work in progress, depending on the test results a beta driver may be released soon (NO ETA!).

That said 2 days ago the developer of SPTD For windows 7. I think soon we'll have Daemon Tools for Win7!

CloneDrive doesn't work for me, especially with my CDI images.

I am using UltraISO now and zero problems!

Cool. But a link to the page is safer. I never download an exe from any post on any forum, no matter who posts it.

I got Daemon Tools Lite to install and work correctly in Windows 7 after doing a google search on the issue.

Had to make a registry modification to uninstall all instances of SPTD then update to latest SPTD then install Daemon Tools again. Worked a Charm. Hope this helps. Hapy Computing :) ::Cheers::

To get Daemon Tools to install and work on Windows 7 without screwing anything up, you need to install the newest version of the SPTD driver from DuplexSecure:

http://www.duplexsecure.com/downloads/

Get the appropriate version, install it, then reboot. Then you can install the newest version of Daemon Tools (it shouldn't try to install the SPTD driver again).

Also, to Shivek, that includes Daemon Tools lite. That's the version I'm using. Installing the newest SPTD driver from DuplexSecure should eliminate any previous issues with Daemon Tools on Windows 7.

I haven't read through all of the posts but Daemon tools works fine here.. running Windows 7 RTM x64 .. the box will pop up about compatibility issues but I just continue...

Yep, as above, works here as well in Win 7 x64.

Windows 7 support was added in builds:

DAEMON Tools Pro version 4.35.0306

DAEMON Tools Lite Version 4.30.4

Does anyone know how to install Daemon Tools on Windows 7? The Scsi emulation driver keeps failing! or does anyone know any alternative ISO mount tools that I can use in Windows 7?

I tried a few times to install daemon tools on windows 7 without any luck.I had the same problem.Forget daemon tools it is just not compatable with win 7 even retail version.Daemon tools used to be free now they are charging for it.Just download a better virtual drive software.It is called MagicISO Virtual CD/DVD-ROM http://www.magiciso.com/tutorials/miso-mag...sc-overview.htm .It works like a charm and totally free

They've been selling versions for years, it's not new. The Lite version, however, is still free and contains everything most people want. It's also fully compatible with Windows 7 (because it has been updated since this thread was created over a year ago), despite what you claim. I am running it right now.

Virtual CloneDrive is another free alternative, although not as advanced as DT.

    • I'd say the first one failed to be as popular as Apple anticipated, but the easy adjustment here is to make fewer of them next time around. It would only be a "flop" if it isn't possible for Apple to recover the design and factory tooling costs given the number of units sold, which I doubt would be the case. It isn't like no one bought them; it just failed to become the new hot phone of the year.
    • You're right that it does not follow the plain meaning of the word, but in this context, it is a legal term defined in 49 U.S.C. Kind of how "wire fraud" laws apply even if a physical wire was not used. Given that it is codified in law, and it isn't just automotive journalists that don't understand evolving technology, I highly doubt congress would change a well understood term just because technology makes the term slightly less actuate.
    • This is exactly why I keep saying we are not ready for human free self-driving. These little "bugs" are may seem like random one-offs. There was also the Waymo that drove between police with drawn weapons and the suspect they were pointing them at. From a software perspective it is easy to understand how those extremely rare situations may not have been programed for, but that is the point. If AI needs to be told to watch out for every possible contingency, then it can never be successful. There will always be the possibility of a first encounter that the AI needs to understand to avoid.
