i never installed a kernel debugger unles its one of the windows updates. but i think that the setup of my computer has create my problem, someone please help!

ok, if you want Deamon tools installed on your pc,
1. remove all kernel debuggers
2. remove/ uninstall deamon tools
- try top remove/ deactivate all virtual drives first (not needed but preferred )
3. reinstall deamon tools (get the latest version)

that does not work, im pretty sure it has to do with the setup of my computer. Please look the guide i followed and find the problem. The post that has the link is 4 posts up.

anyone? i dunno why no one else has this problem.

i already have 6 drives setup on my compu6ter could this be messing up the virtual drive from starting?

is it possible that tghe virtual drive is trying to start a drive over an already existing drive and failing?

You should be able to have 26 drives total (inc floppie ect) , so thats not the prob.

Do you have the Starforce driver installed on youre pc?

Have a look here:

Or maybe this is something? :

Virtual CD-ROM Control Panel v2.0.1.1


This free program for Windows XP lets you create a virtual CD drive on your hard disk. Some visitors to the site have confirmed that it works with Windows 2000 too (but this is not stated in Microsoft's official readme).

For anyone unfamiliar with the terms 'virtual CD' or 'CD emulator', they mean that you can copy the entire contents of a CD-ROM to your hard disk and run the programs or access the files without the need for the original CD. This can make files more accessible, faster and more convenient. Given the speed and size of today's hard drives, you could easily fit a number of CDs onto your hard drive without noticing the difference. Assuming you had 30 full CDs, these would take around 20GB on a hard drive and all will be accessible after a few clicks of a mouse.

Hard drives are about 10 times faster than a CD, plus you can instantly access the file instead of grabbing the CD case, inserting the CD and awaiting for the contents to load. It's true, you could try copying the files over to the hard drive, but this can get messy, plus some programs require a CD to be loaded in order to run. This virtual CD program 'pretends' it is a CD drive (even though the files are on your hard drive), so your programs will run as normal.

It only works with ISO images

Installation instructions
=========================
1. Copy VCdRom.sys to your %systemroot%system32drivers folder.
2. Execute VCdControlTool.exe
3. Click "Driver control"
4. If the "Install Driver" button is available, click it. Navigate to the %systemroot%system32drivers folder, select VCdRom.sys, and click Open.
5. Click "Start"
6. Click OK
7. Click "Add Drive" to add a drive to the drive list. Ensure that the drive added is not a local drive. If it is, continue to click "Add Drive" until an unused drive letter is available.
8. Select an unused drive letter from the drive list and click "Mount".
9. Navigate to the image file, select it, and click "OK". UNC naming conventions should not be used, however mapped network drives should be OK.

You may now use the drive letter as if it were a local CD-ROM device. When you are finished you may unmount, stop, and remove the driver from memory using the driver control.
