ISO Question..

My school has some agreement with MS so I can get Microsoft One Note 2007 as a free ISO download...or pay 18.99 for a disk to be mailed to me (<_< . Thing is as much as I know about computers...I don't know anything in some areas. I know what ISO is, but without a USB DVD Drive how can I "view" the ISO to install the program?!

Thanks,

Under Linux you would just mount it

Under windows you will need to either have a tool to unpack the .iso files or install a program that emulates a cd drive. For the latter Daemon tools is recommended; the lite version is free:

I tried the program, but when I click mount it just loads a little clock and doesn't do anything. Am I missing something?

 

Try magicdisc... its always worked for me. If it doesn't, the ISO may have been corrupted whilst downloading.. try downloading again if magicdisc doesn't work. =)

You can also use Microsoft's own (Free) Virtual CD-ROM Control Panel. The interface is funky, but it works.....

Thanks dunnix!

I tried it and it works GREAT!

Now I'm using Google Chrome [opens up sooo fast, and I got a SDD model!] and OneNote2007 [which is pretty zippy too]
