eNote Posted January 4, 2007 Aplogies if ImgBurn already does this but: I use ImgBurn under W2K as a convenient and reliable way to burn ISO images to disc. These are usually downloads of LINUX images, etc. It would be nice if the reverse could take place, insert the OS disc and create an ISO Image to hard disk. This would be useful for long term archiving, CDROMs are not to be relied upon for long term storage, or for mounting with say Daemon Tools or as VMware CDROM images.

lfcrule1972 Posted January 4, 2007 There is a read function in ImgBurn for non protected discs, this allows you to create an .iso, I don't know if it's what you require for your purposes tho. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LIGHTNING UK! Posted January 4, 2007 I think you mean there WILL BE.... (it's not out yet!) It's just a very basic one that'll let you read DATA CDs and DVDs to an ISO image. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zacoz Posted January 4, 2007 That'll be handy for we people with only one DVD drive per system especially when some of those old not so good quality discs need reburning Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LIGHTNING UK! Posted January 5, 2007 I had a couple of samsung drives on order from scan but they let me down and I've had to cancel my order and get them from elsewhere. I want them before I release the new one so I can try and tweak the samsung book type setting code. So yeah, as lfc said, it'll be out when it's ready Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
