only_huce said:I currently have an iso of a program inwhich I would like to install on my home desktop. However my home desktop only has a cd-rom drive and not a dvd room drive so I can't burn it to the disk. I know I can still mount and run it using a program such as daemontools however I don't know of a way to make the iso run on restart espicially when it's supposed to boot off the cd drive. Is there any way around it?
To run an ISO off of restart without burning it to a disk, you will need to use a virtual drive software such as Virtual CloneDrive or Daemon Tools. These programs create a virtual drive on your computer where you can mount the ISO file and run it as if it were a physical disk.
Yes, there are virtual drive software options available for Mac computers such as VirtualBox and Parallels Desktop. These programs allow you to create a virtual machine where you can mount and run the ISO file.
No, you can use any type of ISO file to run it off of restart without burning it to a disk. However, some virtual drive software may have compatibility limitations, so it is best to check the program's requirements before attempting to run the ISO file.
Yes, virtual drive software allows you to mount and run the ISO file without actually storing the file on your computer. This can be a great option for those with limited storage space.
Yes, virtual drive software eliminates the need for an optical drive to run an ISO file. This allows you to run the ISO on any computer or device that supports the virtual drive software.
