Since the introduction of Windows 7, virtual hard disk drives become more and more popular. Today I would like to tell you more about this useful tool and describe how to work with VHD, using DAEMON Tools Ultra. Let's learn all you wanted to know about virtual HDD. What a virtual hard disk is, how to create VHD, where to use it and what advantages you can get, creating and mounting VHD with DAEMON Tools Ultra.

VHD (virtual hard disk) is an imitation of a physical hard disk drive. It is located on the real HDD physically, however, has its own logical partition and file system. That's why virtual HDD operates just like a physical one and can contain files, folders, applications or operating system. Originally, virtual hard disk was used only with virtual machines, but today there are many more cases, when it may work for you. Let's discuss the most common of them.

As I've already mentioned above, virtual hard disk can be used by virtual machine. It's pretty easy to understand: we have an imaginary computer and need a virtual HDD for it. It may contain an operating system or just necessary data, which you use working with virtual machine.

The other common way to use VHD is creating additional operating systems that host on a single machine. In simple words, you can create VHD, install OS and use it instead of a virtual machine (in Windows 8 and 8.1). In this case, you don't need expensive and comprehensive software but can evaluate all the advantages of virtual machines. I'd like to highlight the most important of them. Virtual hard disk with operating system installed allows you to work with several clones of your PC safely. You can test something, experiment with features of the operating system, learn its abilities without a risk of system failure. Also, you can host several different versions of the operating system on one PC.

Virtual HDD is a flexible and useful tool, so there are lots of additional features and ways to use it thanks to DAEMON Tools. For example, with DAEMON Tools iSCSI Target, you can not only create VHD but also share it. Just imagine: you have a virtual hard disk with lots of data or even an installed OS and you can use it remotely anywhere. Also, I have already described how VHD helps create a persistent RAM and can be encoded with the latest version of DAEMON Tools Ultra.

That's all. In a couple of moments, my virtual HDD will be ready for use. I have already copied several folders to it and want to show you my VHD. I have also checked Automount option in Preferences, and now my VHD will be ready to use even after the system reboot.

As you see, the question about how to create VHD is solved thanks to DAEMON Tools Ultra. Those who want to use the created virtual hard disk for new operating system need to insert the bootable disc, restart the computer and choose this VHD as a destination for the system.

And I want to answer another question regarding virtual HDD, which you may also want to ask. Why do we need DAEMON Tools Ultra, if there is a special tool that can create VHD embedded into Windows 7 and 8?

Well, those who know how to create VHD using Windows already have an answer. To create VHD with the Microsoft's tool, you need lots of time. This utility consists of numerous dialogues, that makes process a bit complicated. However, virtual hard disk is something that everyone can make and use. At DAEMON Tools, we want to help you feel comfortable creating VHDs and working with them.

DAEMON tools was originally a successor of Generic SafeDisc emulator and incorporated all of its features.[10] The program claims to be able to defeat most copy protection schemes such as SafeDisc and SecuROM.[11] It is currently compatible with Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8, and Windows 10. DAEMON Tools has a special mode for proper operation of copies of discs with advanced protection (SafeDisc, SecuRom and LaserLock, CDCOPS, StarForce and Protect CD), which are used on some discs with games.[12]

Advanced Mount wizard allows you to choose the virtual or physical drive, mount point, DVD region and adjust other additional parameters while mounting an image or a virtual hard disk.

I suspected that the hardware CD-ROM was considered "First, and after trying out, it did play music, but only when the CD-ROM drive was first in letter arrangement compared to Daemon Tools. But changing the letters so that the virtual drive pops up first doesn't solve my problem.

I've got Carmageddon that is badly scratched too. While running it with daemon tools, music doesn't work. However if I put the CD in the drive and start the game with the image loaded in daemon tools, the game will load music from the CD. I discovered that if you happen to have two cd drives with only one wired to the sound card, then if you put another game in the CD drive that have analog audio wired up and the wanted game in the other drive, it will read the game's data from the correct drive, however the music will be read from the other CD drive ?

Is using a WDM-Driver the only way? That means no Win95? 

I have tested it and the mounted audio-cd with deamon-tools 3.47 plays fine under win95, but only if I switch back to the windows-desktop while running the game,

going back to the game, cd-audio is instantly muted. could that not be fixed by hacking a mixer-setting? 

I checked everything, but I can't find a way to de-mute the playing cd-audio.

To get this to work correctly is proving difficult. You need the Daemon tools virtual drive assigned with D: drive letter to start. You can then mount an image (e.g. CUE) and opening CD player plays the game track corretly. In games the CD audio also works, however it causes game stuttering quite badly. Turning off the CD audio, the stuttering stops.

Now you need to go to the Device Manager and right-click on the problem virtual drive that should be under other devices now. Then click on Properties buttons, go to the Driver tab and press on the Update Driver button and point the path to C:\windows\inf folder.

DAEMON Tools is a program that will allow you to create up to 4 virtual CD or DVD drives so you can use the content of your CD/DVDs with anticopy protection without running into any restrictions. It supports both the DT and SCSI formats. If you have the formatted image on your hard drive, you can emulate the disk as if it were a physical copy and install the software that it contains.

It's fantastic. It's open source, a little less than half a megabyte, and is ridiculously easy to use. It supports ISO, CUE, IMG, BIN, NRG, MDF/MDS, CCD and RAW formats, and all you have to do to mount an image is to right click on any of the mentioned image files and then click "Select Drive Letter and Mount" and that's it! To unmount, you just go into My Computer, right click the virtual drive, and click eject, and that's it, it disappears.

Do not mount them with Daemon tools. Instead, you can mount an image directly with vmware. Go into the CD Drive properties, and select "Use an ISO Image", and browse to the ISO. You can change this while VMWare is running so you can change the disk.

This version has an easy-to-use interface and displays all its features on one panel, so you can easily find whatever task you're looking for in just a few clicks. All of the tools offered by Daemon Tools Lite are organized into sections: catalog, drives, settings, image editor, burn, VHD, and USB.

The catalog section contains all the features you'll need to create your own collection of disk images. From this section, you can mount as many ISO images as you want by clicking the button on the right side of the screen. This tool makes managing your catalog and organizing or deleting your disk images easy. For more advanced features, open the drives section, where you can adjust the mount parameters of VHDs and add virtual drives. 0852c4b9a8
