... You do know Daemon Tools was updated ages ago to support Windows 7 "Out of the box" without any tweaks?

Also, daemon tools has become trash, filled with crap. Virtual CloneDrive is so much better and works under W7 as well.

I was having issues and I checked the DT forums, where a lot of people were also having issues. did anyone have to do anything special to get it to work?

cropcircles, I notice that your signature states that you're running the RC, NOT the RTM. It worked fine in the RC for me, not the RTM though.

:rolleyes: You shouldn't bold something when you're wrong.

Well I'm not the only one having issues. When it didn't work, I went onto the official forum and seen that the OFFICIAL response was "A new version with full Windows 7 support will be released shortly" and figured that it must have been a problem. A housemate of mine has the exact same issue, so forgive me for perhaps indicating that it has issues when, in fact, it clearly does :rolleyes:.

It doesn't work for me (and at least 2 other people), so how am I wrong saying that it doesn't work? That makes you wrong. And you shouldn't bold things when you're wrong. :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

Keyword being figured. After 3 people came in saying it supported it at the very top and the OP retracted his statement. I am not wrong that it works, you however are wrong. If it works for some people, then clearly it IS working. You didn't indicate it has issues, you flat out said it doesn't work.

By all the smileys, I can see I have offended you. Daemon Tools, serious business. :p

i just used poweriso, i'll try it out when i get my new computer

+1 Power ISO's image drive works, but I don't think they use the SPTD SCSI passthrough driver that is used in Daemon tools, which is what actually causes the compatibility issues

Get over yourself, I was pointing out your own arrogance. You're saying I'm flat out wrong because it works for you, but equally I could say that you're flat out wrong because it DOESN'T work for me and several others. Clearly, there IS a problem somewhere, with something. Who knows what it is, but it certainly doesn't work the way it should.

      I just started using Teams (and “New” Oiutlook) at work (instead of Slack) and both are truly abysmal pieces of software.

      If you are willing to go to approx $200, then as mentioned in your other thread I think a refurbished Pixel 8 will be a great deal that will last you for years. I recently recommended that to someone at work, he was on a strict £200 budget, which got him an excellent conditioned refurbished Pixel 8 here. He's since told me its the best phone he's ever had and feels its a massive upgrade over his old Samsung A series device. I don't know the sites which deal in refurbished devices in the US, however I’m sure you will have some options like we do here. Failing that Ebay is also quite good in my experience. If you wanted something a bit cheaper, then you could maybe go for an older Pixel 7, these will still get security updates until the end of 2027. Even after that you have good third party OS support from LineageOS. It doesn't have to be a Pixel though, you can buy many older devices for a good deal that would be better than a new $100 phone and flash LineageOS to them: https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/

      I don't use one drive, but then I don't use any cloud storage, not even Icloud on my mac. If I did use cloud storage, then I would not use One drive, not because there is anything wrong with it, but because I can use Icloud. The only reason I see to use one drive is if your job requires you to have access to it

      Not built in, which is not a bad thing. There are ways of adding cloud storage to it, Dropbox is the most well know that also have a client for Linux, but there are others.
