Install Virtual CD-ROM Control Panel v2.0.1.1 on Windows 7

I try to install Virtual CD-ROM Control Panel v2.0.1.1 on Windows 7 Home Premium.

Extract the zipped file you get 3 files:

Following the installation instructions in the readme file:
Readme for Virtual CD-ROM Control Panel v2.0.1.1

THIS TOOL IS UNSUPPORT BY MICROSOFT PRODUCT SUPPORT SERVICES


The system configuration required
===================
-Windows XP Home Edition or Windows XP Professional

Installation instructions
=========================
1 copy VCdRom.sys to your folder % systemroot%\system32\drivers.
2. run VCdControlTool.exe
3. click on "control pilot".
4. If the "Install Driver" button is available, click it. Navigate in % systemroot%\system32\drivers, select VCdRom.sys and click Open.
5. click on 'start '.
6. click on OK
7. click on 'Add Drive' to add a disk to the list of drives. Ensure that the added disk is not a local drive. If this is the case, continue clicking 'Add Drive' until what a drive letter used is available.
8. Select a drive letter that is not used in the drive list, and click "move up".
9. navigate to the image file, select it and click on 'OK '. UNC naming conventions should not be used, however the mapped network drives should be OK.

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

The next step 1 gives me this message:
Being the administrator I clicked on continue and the file has been moved.
Then, when I get to step 3 I get:
Changing the properties of the VCdControl tool to run in compatibility mode for Windows xp this sort but them when I went to step 4, I could not find file VCdRom.sys. In fact, that many files in the %systemroot%\system32\drivers folder were apparently not there the only visible have been:
I tried 'run as administrator' and running as a user both have the same effect.
I'm obviously missing something, can anyone help?

I suggest you give it a glance: http://www.slysoft.com/en/virtual-clonedrive.html. If you want a virtual CD-ROM/DVD-ROM drive, it's free and it works.

  • How can I remove the Control Panel details at the bottom of windows?

    OK 21:00 tonight my keyboard fell from my bed and seems he has done something because it is now showing a panel at the bottom of all the folders on my computer, send me details about the drives, folders and so on, for example if I click on an image file it will tell me the name of the file , size, dimensions but also let me specify an taken date if no date is there, as well as let give me it tags, an author, a title, and the choice of 0 to 5 stars. I don't know what it is called or how to remove it, but for me it wasn't there until I use the classic windows shell btw, so it may be something in this but I have no idea.

    This is a picture I took showing what I mean:

    http://img826.imageshack.us/img826/5443/win7thing.jpg

    One way is to point your cruiser of mouse on the top line above the pane and drag it to normal size, because it is of size much.

    Click on organize in the upper left corner and the layout and uncheck the list in the Details pane

  • "WINDOWS EXPLORER has STOPPED WORKING" error every time I try to open things like 'Control Panel' and any other file of windows.

    This happens when I try to open any file from windows Explorer. It began to happen yesterday after my mother has finished using the computer. I think she did something (a click on something online somewhere) and may have introduced a virus into the computer. We have only a very minimal virus protection so I see not what is a great possibility. When I came home there was some files randomly on the desktop and I went to "My computer" right now (with difficulty) and removed all the new things, she got on the computer, that she doesn't want to download (which means they came when she clicks on something somewhere online). I thought I had fixed it but now I can't even open 'my computer' because of this error. Help, please

    Loading Windows in Safe Mode and check if the problem is here. You can use the system restore as well. You can also use this program and disable Windows Explorer extensions that were not Microsoft.

  • I can't pin shortcuts to Documents, images, and the taskbar Control Panel. They go only in Windows Explorer?

    Clear since back with Win 98, I used the Quick Launch bar downstairs to give me quick access to my most used programs while keeping open the windows that I use, so I was happy to Win 7 as supposed that this would finally make a correctly recognized feature.  However, I find only programs can actually be pinned it.  I don't want these three things hiding inside Windows Explorer, what makes 2 clicks result instead of 1.  Am I missing something simple (which is possible)!  I can get the shortcuts on the desktop is there a way to then pin the taskbar shortcuts instead?

    Hi skyreburn,

    This is how the Windows 7 pin feature. Personally, I would like an option that allows you to pin folders separated rather than adding it under the Solution Explorer icon. You can accomplish what you want with a hack (sort of), pinning an executable, and by changing the way target the question later. For more information, see this article.

  • Control Panel System Windows Explorer has stopped working

    When I press on the Control Panel, system, I get an error "Windows Explorer has stopped working" and then control panel stops. I get this error every time I have to perform this action. When I run my PC on Safe Mode, it works fine and I get no error and I'm able to run the options that appear when the 'Systems' option is selected. Other tasks in the control panel seem to work correctly.  I also noticed that I get similar messages "windows Explorer or the program has stopped working" periodically when I perform other tasks in internet explore, etc.

    I tried all the recommendations described in of KB/269949 and KB/929135 knowledge articles and many items in the Microsoft community, Microsoft and the Internet site. For example, update the video driver, auditor of file system (CFS), Virus scan, Mode safe, clean boot, memory RAM test, etc.. I also tried all the relevant actions I could think under the Microsoft Fix tool. Each of them has not solved the problem.

    I have a laptop Acer Aspire 5742 G with ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5470 with 8 GB of memory, running Windows 7 with all the latest updates installed, so all drivers have been updated. I also use the last IE 11 with all updates.

    If anyone knows a similar problem with Windows 7, Windows Explorer and Internet Explorer 11, or has a recommendation how to fix?

    Hi Ravi,

    This is an update to my problem. It might be useful to others with similar problems.

    My problem has not been resolved, but I decided to live with it. It was a difficult decision after a major disaster, I almost lost everything on my PC to try and solve the problem.

    I put the finger on the problem with the graphics ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5470 version 8.741.1.5000 dated dated 25/08/2010 driver. I noticed that when I check for an update using Control Panel, Device Manager, select the graphics card above and updates, windows comes back with a message indicating that it is the best available driver.

    I made the mistake to check the AMD website to see if there is a newer driver. According to their instructions and download their program, they recommended a more recent drive using the catalyst for AMD. The new driver is Version 14.301.1001.0 dated 15/09/2014 date. The same driver is also selected if I the Slimdrivers application user. With this new driver, the problem disappeared. In other words, I was able to use the Control Panel, System menu and access the submenus system without any problems. I thought I had solved the problem. I repeated the process and checked for the driver from the Windows Control Panel, Device Manager and look for the updates. Surprise. This review of windows update back to the original version of the 25/08/2010. The problem is back again. I repeated this process with re-installing Catalyst from AMD with the same results.

    However, I noticed that the AMD Catalyst, never finished the installation and the installation crashed. Updated the driver before it crashed.

    My major problem occurred when I tried to restart the PC with the new driver installed by AMD Catalyst. My PC and Windows would not start. He gave me a number of errors that the problem cannot be corrected. I tried all the solutions, Safe Mode, point to restore, System Restore and all the choices given in the articles from Microsoft. None of them worked.

    Finally, after many hours, days and nights that I was able to use an Acer recovery disk, I created when I bought the laptop. One on the Image worked system recovery options and I could get my PC to a more ancient date. The driver is the original edition of 2010 the year with the same problem.

    Therefore, I decided to live with the problem. I can access the submenus of system using startup and entering in the auxiliary system option in the search box. I wrote these submenus.

    WARNING TO OTHER USERS. DO NOT TRY to UPDATE THE ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5470, 8.741.1.5000 driver version dated 25/08/2010, using catalyst of MCDA.

    Furthermore, my assessment is that if I try to restore my PC to the factory default condition, once all windows updates are installed and I install my apps, the same problem will occur. If I did think I would lose a lot of useful applications, which I'm not sure that I can restore. I have a lot of useful data that I use for more than 20 years and I can't afford to lose their jobs. I would live with the problem until something more grand occurs. In this case, I would by a new laptop. I would make sure that there no AMD ATI products on this topic.

    Thanks again for the time. There is no reason to answer, unless as described above, you have seen something new.
