The program is the Microsoft’s WinXP Virtual CD Control Panel:

It mounts the ISO file to a drive letter and you can use it as if it’s in a CDROM drive.
Non-free program is ‘deamon tools’.
Add your free programs if you know any.
Sadly the Microsoft Tool never worked for me… tried it on 3 different systems.
It worked on my NC20 from the start – I installed MSOffice from ISO image file.
You have to put the sys driver in the windows drivers directory, then run the Virtual CD, install the driver (I actually appointed the program to my unzipped directory to look for the driver, not the windows dir) and then you mount the ISO file and ready to go.
I use the free version of Daemon Tools on a few machines.

I’ve used Magic Disc for a long time now, it’s a simple lightweight app that sits in the System Tray and allows for booting of a few different image types as a virtual drive – oh and it’s free! 🙂

http://www.slysoft.com/en/virtual-clonedrive.html does the job, free and works (at least for me on XP)
I see no reason to use anything but Daemon Tools. Its free, easy to use, and supports emulation of a large number of disk security solutions.
