ISO image? and daemon tools?
I download the sims 2 game from mininova, and I download daemon tools.
I read a lot about having to convert something to ISO such that daemon tools can read it? And I know you can convert something to ISO using magic ISO/CD burner XP ?
Can someone just explain the whole process to me? how to install?
thanks
Update:I clicked on disc 1-auto run.
it was installing alright, then it asked me to insert disc 2. I dunno how to use daemon tools to 'trick the computer'. so i heard must have ISO, but how?!?!!

ISO, is basically an Image file.
Aka, not an executeable file.
However, if an ISO file is burned CORRECTLY to a CD then yes it can become executeable and install a program off it.
Ive done this before, and I just used Nero to burn my ISO file onto a CD to then install the thing I wanted.
Basically, here's the process:
Download/Install Nero.
Open up ISO file burning tab in Nero.
Select file and burn it to a BLANK CD.
Then, insert CD and install your application.
Then, yay :)
DAEMONS Tools it the best way to create backup of CD and DVD, I got it for free here http://j.mp/1pklORO
With DAEMON Tools Lite [Commercial] you can create ISO and MDS image files from original discs inserted in physical CD/DVD/HD DVD/Blu-ray drives.
Or use images you have created earlier with other program. DAEMON Tools products work with variety of image types.
