Program to mount a CD Image?

I need a program to mount a CD image in windows. Something that acts as a virtual CD drive.

Uh, google for '"virtual cd" windows'?
I remember using the Norton/Symantec one, don't know what the best one is though.

The image file is a .mdf, then there's a much smaller file that's a .mds that you're supposed to open to mount the image, or something like that.

I use Alcohol 120% (www.alcohol-soft.com).

Usually what happens is that there's one file that's the actual image, and other file that serves as the CD's table of contents, or something like that. I just opened a .mds file and it wasn't in human readable form, but opening up a .cue file gives something like
Quote:
FILE "CD Image.bin" BINARY
TRACK 01 MODE1/2352
INDEX 01 00:00:00

I usually use Daemon Tools to mount .iso images.

I have used ISO buster in the past. It just extracts the contents of an ISO or other CD images such as ghost images onto your HDD and you can run everything from that.

I have used ISO Buster, but not for mounting an image!?!

Alcohol 120% works okay, but currently I use Daemon Tools and the new "Virtual CloneCD" incorporated in CloneCD.

Harder
