    Just curious what could do this? I've made a few ISOs and I want to be able to use them as the read CD when I'm traveling...

    Have you tried Alcohol 120%? I don't have Vista so I am not sure if it is compatible but give that a try.

    120 doesn't like some of my software...I've crashed my computer a few times with it.
    Since I'm going to have to go the cheap college student route, I'll be checking out Daemon ASAP.

    Ditto on Daemon tools. Using it myself with Vista. Works just fine.

    I use Daemon from time to time, also Nero 7 Ultra has a similar tool which works best in my opinion as 7 Ultra is fully compatible with Vista.

    daemon tools is nice and easy to use.

    but i think Power Iso has more image file types support.

    Daemon tools has been a favorite of mine for a while... another utility to go along with it is something called Daemonscript ( http://www.daemon-tools.cc/dtcc/download.php?mode=Download&id=84), which allows you to make little scripts that auto-mount an image file when you want to run a particular program. It just saves a bit of time when you're switching programs.
