Virtual Clone Drive Windows 7

[Tinisha]

Ihave Virtual Clone drive installed on Windows 7, but I only use it rarely. I would like to disable it from running on startup. I already checked the startup folder and msconfig, but I couldn't find a way to disable this service.

Hit Windows+R (run). In the box that apears type msconfig. This will bring you to the system configuration.Go to the tab that says windows start (or something like that, my sistem is not in english).Find the entry that says virtual Clone Drive and uncheck it.It will prompt you to restart, you may choose to do so later it doesn't matter.

im having trouble with this , i downloaded & installed the program , however when i go to mount , it does not give me the option to do so . there is a manual file for a shortcut and an uninstall file . when i right click virtualclonedrive , explore open search scan with ad aware , these are the things listed . what am i doing wrong? i've rebooted the vista home premium edition machine and tried it just sits there. this is an amd turion processor..not sure if that has anything to do with it or not. any help you can give is appreciated.

this is vista 32bit & yes i have tried rebooting, turning the system off and waiting 2 or 3 hours for no reason etc.. i have also tried installing and uninstalling. this is a brand new machince right out of the box not a rebuild or an machine that has had mulitple things installed or uninstalled etc.

You should also go download MAGIC ISO (that's what I use) and see if you have the same problem. BTW - you can grab an ISO file anywhere these days. try a few of them to make sure it's not a dud like groovy dude said.

But yeah it sounds like you have a corrupted ISO file or in some cases a file won't be readable by certain virtual drive software if it was made by another software brand, such is the case with Alcohol %120 formatted discs.

I have problems with making virtual drives on my system. i have a 32 bit windows vista. i didn't have a problem before i installed a new version of deamon tools and it stuck my system. after i restarted it seems that i can't see any virtual drives with any program (virtual CloneDrive included)

in the device manager i see that under storage controllers there is a "!" mark on SCSI/RAID Host Controller and when i press properties it says: Windows cannot load the device driver for this hardware. The driver may be corrupted or missing. (Code 39)

I can't mount images, and in the device manager i see that under storage controllers there is a "!" mark on SCSI/RAID Host Controller and when i press properties it says: Windows cannot load the device driver for this hardware. The driver may be corrupted or missing. (Code 39)

Hello everyone as you probably know about a image mounting program called "Virtual clone drive 5440" for Windows 95 on DOSbox SVN, but I have a problem for myself it does not recognize the Mixed mode content even if it's a img/cdd to play cd audio. For those who are wondering what a CCD file is, it's a image file made for Virtual Clone drive to use Mixed mode as a heard from other forums from other sites, very similar to the BIN/CUE pair you have to place the IMG next to the CCD, the IMG carries the date and the CCD carries the audio tracks and it's called "Pregap data" I hear it from some who knows how to work Windows 95 on DOSbox by some named Kevin Hawkins who has a website on how to run Windows 95 on DOSbox, and he knows how to make his IMG/CCD images work.

Here's what I was trying to do,when I tried to install "Lenny's music toons, Star wars Shadows of the Empire and Sonic 3D blast" that I made IMG/CCD files of the original CDs I still have, and I copy it to my Windows 95 B second hard disk image (Just in case I need extra memory.) I mount it with VCD I click on the image I want to mount (Ill use "Lenny's music toons" for example.), then I got to my E drive (Which is Virtual Clone drive.) I click on install and shows that I have midi and wave, then it gives me the error message "CD Audio test failed" but it has the CD tracks in the CCD file I tried like CD player but it didn't detect anything.

So I don't know what I did wrong if any of you know how to make pregap IMG/CCD Mixed mode images that uses CD music and that worked on their Virtual Clone drive emulator on Windows 95 in DOSbox SVN (May 6 2013) (Which I use because it's more for Windows 95 because it's more compatible that way.) please respond to this fourm.

Are you using the most recent version of the SVN Daum build? Perhaps whatever is causing Windows to freeze has been fixed. Actually, the latest versions include CD-ROM emulation directly and and do not require a virtual CD drive at all.

Well I see your suggestion but when I try to use it in the current version of SVN it gives me a the blue screen of death and the voodoo emulation is glitchy that's why I am using the May 6 2013 version.

You mean Jan. 27. 2014 ? I have that version but one problem I get alot off errors when I try to install Internet explorer 5.5 and also is their a way for Lenny's music toons to work that was made for 3.1 with the use of Windows 95 using backwards compatibility without freezing ?

Well I don't under stand some games of what Windows 95 have the back wards compatibility to play games made for Windows operationg systems on DOS that use CD audio always freezes on me when I use Daemon or Nero image rom.

Anywho, I've been having a heck of time getting a virtual CD to work. All of them seem to not be able to install, or fail once you try to use them. Is there a specific one that Win95 will work with? I believe I'm using version Windows 95 "B"...is that part of the problem? If so, is there an upgrade somewhere?

I had the same problem with Mortal Kombat Trilogy in Win95. It too is a mixed mode CD. Neither Daemon Tools nor CloneCD would support the audio tracks on the image files. I had better success with an older version of Alcohol 120% (v1.4.7). Sometimes the audio would play, sometimes nothing. In XP it works fine however so it may be a 95 problem.

Is there some source documentation to look through? If not, which files deal with CDs/CD images, Red Book/mixed mode audio, and the boot command? And is there some docs on how a real machine (and its BIOS) deals with CD drives? Sorry for all of the n00b questions, but I really would like to work on it if I could.

Unfortunately, NOT. I don't know why, but AudioCD doesn't works. I've tested 2 games: X-Wing 95 and Civnet without success. Maybe I have something wrong with my CD ROM settings, but I can't play audio tracks even under WinAMP...

Hmm, something I can't understand. I've tested Super EF2000 made by DID. This version has audiotracks. I've mounted an NRG-image with ImageDrive, launched game, and...it plays audiotracks! Although I can't play it under WinAMP, audiotracks are played in game...strange, very strange...

DaemonTools doesn't work because it generate an "famous 1723 error". This is probably caused by Windows Installer, but I have newest verscion. which works under Windows 9x...

Virtual Clonedrive doesn't work! MagicDisk also. The only one virtualdrive, which works is ImageDrive from Nero. Maybe I have something wrong with my Win95 installation, I don't know.

Now I didn't try any of these in Windows 9x in DOSBox because Windows 9x is not supported in DOSBox so if you are referring to these programs not working in 9x then also mention that you are using them in DOSBox as well.

I know it! I don't complain about incompatibility of DOSBOX with Win 95. I know, this can be VERY unstable, is from DOSBOX not supported etc etc. The goal of this topic is an exchange of knowledge and experiences about virtual drive emulation in Win95 under DOSBOX. I won't bother anybody (especially from DOSBOX creation staff) about this emulation and problems. I share only with my knowledge. That's all.

There is a project over at MSFN that is sort of like KernelEX for Windows 98 in that it will improve compatibility for modern apps on Windows 95, can't remember the name right now. Thinks it's SHScomething

Virtual CloneDrive is a completely free tool for Windows which allows you to create up to 8 different virtual disc drives.
