Mount an ISO File with Daemon Tools
Posted on 01. Sep, 2008 by Kyle Judkins in How To
There are several ways to mount ISO files, but I have been using Daemon Tools for some time now. It is a light weight and easy to use tool that I recommend, and today, I’m going to walk you through how to mount all of your ISO files using Daemon Tools.
Download Daemon Tools
The first step is easy enough just download Daemon Tools.
Open Daemon Tools
When you open Daemon Tools, you will only get an icon in the system tray, so don’t wait for a window to pop up.
Mount the ISO File
Next, right click on the Daemon Tools icon to open up the menu. Go to Virtual CD/DVD-ROM, then Device 0.
After clicking on Device 0, click on Mount Image. A new window will pop up, and you must locate the ISO file on your hard drive. Just click on the ISO file and you’re done.

OMG! That was so easy. I’m not a computer idiot, but when you read the instructions on torrent sites, the don’t make sense. THIS makes sense. Worked like a charm. Thanks!

Hi
I’m trying to install Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire but whenever I try to install it, by double clicking on the “EA” application (Autorun), it says insert the CD. I have downloaded Daemon and tried mounting “exe” files but doesn’t work. There aren’t any type of these files “Cue, ISO, Bwt, Cdi, b5t, ccd, mds, nrg, pdi” in the folders of the game. So I don’t know what to mount and what exactly to do. I have the CD key and everything but having trouble installing. You are an expert and I ask for your assistance. Please email me back. Thanks

Daemon works fine, but what to do if you want to burn the mounted file if it’s bigger than 2 GB? Nero 7 doesn’t do it! Even UDF doesn’t work. Any suggestions?

I downloaded and used hjsplit to combine the game Spore. When i click to mount image, it runs for a second like its about to run it, then nothing happens. I looked in My Computer and its there in the drive, but again when i click that to run it nothing happens. Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Dude I have noticed that u only respond to people who thank U for sharing this info
but if u cannot solve the problem related to “WRONG DISC” then atleast let us know so we should go and try to find the solution somewhere else

Unfortunately, I’ve never experienced that error, so I am not able to help fix it.

And if you download the game and there is no “iso” file, what do you do then? Ive tried about every single file.
Still ses:
The wrong disc is inserted.
Please insert the original disc “GAME NAME”
