We have covered virtual dvd drive software programs in the past. Software like Clone Drive, Win CD Emu or Iso Disk allow a user to create virtual DVD drives on a computer system that can mount disk image formats. Most programs that were covered in the past were restricted to a few popular disk image formats. Not so Total Mounter, the latest addition in the virtual DVD drive category.
Total Mounter comes with support for many disk image formats including iso, bin, b5i, mdf, cdi, nrg, ccd, sub, img and raw. Even better is the fact that the program does not have to be running after mounting a disk image which will obviously reduce its memory footprint and resource usage. Up to eight drives can be emulated by the software program. Images can be mounted in the application’s interface. One interesting aspect of Total Mounter is the ability to create virtual CD-RW and DVD-RW drives that can be used to write date to a virtual CD or DVD drive.
Another interesting feature provided by the software is the virtual disk creation option. This makes it possible to create and mount virtual disks from within the application. TotalMounter will install a new driver to the computer system during installation to offer the functionality.It also offers the following niche features that might be interesting to some users:
- Provides a iSCSI Initiator for mount iStorage Server and other iSCSI Target.
- Provides a INetDisk client for mount INetDisk Server.
- Provides a network-bridged method. It exports an existing partition, disk, CD/DVD-ROM to clients as a virtual iSCSI drive.
The program is easy to use and does support most image formats that are popular these days.

Has anyone tried this? Does it support .ISZ format images?
It looks like Daemon Tool Lite or StarPort from Rocket Division Software.

Does TotalMounter have any advantage compare to the other two?
Thanks.
By the way, Daemon Tool Lite support ISZ image.
Thanks! Seems interesting.
Nice software! I’ve tried it and their istorage server(also has free version), You can even mount a cd image from network, and many computers share one image.
I think another usefull feature is CDRW emualtor, I can create iso through windows explorer.
Anyone had problems with this? I really want to try the virtual recorder out but any time I set up a virtual drive it crashes my PC. I get a flicker of a blue screen then an endless cycle or restarts until I boot into the “last known good configuration”. Anyone got a working step-by-step on how to use the tool?
Cheers.
First of all this is adware not freeware. Second I couldn’t get it to do anything. It’s drivers are unsigned so you get warnings through the install process. I decided to take a chance. I could never get any image to be assined a letter so no virtual drives were recognized. The help button goes directly to the main page of the website.
Would NOT recommend, till they improve product and sign their drivers.
