I converted a mdf-file with UltraISO to iso and it worked fine.

downloaded a mds game. Tried open with winiso, alocohol, winrar, ps2cdgen, winhiip and nero. No go. Deleted. Wasted my bandwidth.

MDF/MDS images are the best for CDs and DVDs, since they contain additional information about the internal DVD and CD format (RMPS) that no other format contains as of right now, with the exception of BlindRead/Write. Daemon Tools and Alcohol 120 support MDS/MDF, the latter supporting it for burning as well as emulation.

use alcohol and create a virtual drive, mount the mdf on teh virtual drive.. then mount the image as if it were a CD/DVD drive

aite thnx i got alcohol, jus need to install it shouldnt be that hard right?

**killah21** · 10-11-2004,03:45 PM

when i start alcohol 120% it says...Loading Alcohol device drivers failed! Emulation options and native driver interface of Alcohol 120% will not be available! (side note: every time i install this program my windows, when rebooting gets all weird and goes to the safe mode screen...anyone know why? i got win xp pro.)

killah21: that is really weird... I've never encountered that error so I couldn't help you with that but try daemon tools too, it's another virtual drive but you just can't burn anything on it.
