Making ISOs?

[Van Halen Man]

I know that an ISO is an exact image of a CD, so does that mean that if I just went to the cd-rom drive, pressed ctrl+a ( to select all(just incase some of you didnt know that)) and pressed ctrl+C and then went do a different loacation and pressed ctrl+V to paste, I would then Have an ISO Image?

Nop... you need a special program to do it for you.

The answer is simple: No.

To make an ISO you must "clone" the CD into the hard drive, not ripping it.

No...but if you want to make ISOs, try any of these:
Alcohol 120%
Magic ISO
Power ISO

[Van Halen Man]

Are those programs ouch123?

[Jale]

Yes, they are. But most of them if not all are shareware (you have to pay for it).

[Van Halen Man]

I am not sure what you mean...Shareware if free. Or did you mean that they arent shareware?

[Jale]

It's more like a trial version, I mean, they give you 15 or 30 days to evaluate the software. If you want to continue using the software, you have to pay for it.

Unless you get it from some other way we won't mention because it's against the forum rules.
