took a look at alcohol the other day and found it kinda neet that you don't need the cd-rom in to make a game work. Now I am only going to use this to do that shuch thing mount it but trying to figure something out it says "Store your most used or important CDs as images on your computer and run them at 200x speed from up to 31 virtual CD or DVD drives!" does that mean everytime I mount a game it knockes it down 1 or can I mount like halo and battlefield in one virtual drive.
basicaly with this can I mount 31 games give or take and then that is it, no more mounting.
note I own a legal copy of all software I am using. just in case you were wondering.

31 at a time, which is plenty. You can always change which image is mounted as a virtual drive.

ok so 31 then I have to remove a few to put other ones on.

You can on the HDD if you want. You'd just have to change which ISO is mounted.

i wouldn't make that many virtual drives, it's quite easy to just switch back and forth. all you have to do is put the images into alchohol's list and then double click one to put it on the default drive, or right click and go to mount on device and select the virtual drive you want. the one thing about storing the cds, you're going to need a bit of space to store that many cds. Oh and i went to look at the virtual drive thing and the max amount of virtual drives is 6.
