    Mounting help - Deamon tools.

    Hey guys. I'm very new to downloading torrents but I've been met with some success. My main problem now is that I've downloaded a game but apparently I have to "Mount" it. I've been told that deamon tools is good but I've downloaded it and noting at all is happening. I've tried to open it but it does nothing.

    Right now, I've got a useless programme that I can't uninstall and I've no idea about what mounting is or how I open the game I've downloaded (Hearts of iron 2).

    I'm not sure if this is the right place for this thread but I'd appreciate any help I could get.

    Re: Mounting help - Deamon tools.

    unless this game is free, sounds like a bad idea. I've been on this forum now long enough to know that any topics relating to "guidance" with piracy and pirated games is not tolerated!

    If it's too much trouble to mount the games, just buy it.

    This thread will be locked I'm guessing.

    There's nothing wrong with having Daemon Tools. It's rather useful for using/testing ISO-wrapped free/trial software.

    Daemon Tools is also useful if you want to install Windows 7 Beta

    Ah, sorry, should have read the rules a little more carefully. Unfortunately, the nearest shop to me that sells PC games is an hour and a half drive, and I don't have a car. Downloading just seems handier sometimes. Thanks for the help anyway.

    EDIT: Also, I've tried the Daemon tools reccomendation for uninstalling but it doesn't work.
