  • DTL & Windows 8 64bits incompatibility

    Hello,
    i have installed DAEMON Tools version 4.46.1.0328 , trying to mount image, but nothing happens. It said "You already have the maximum number of virtual drives but i didn't ! I'm on Windows 8 64 bits

    First try to uninstall/reinstall DT lite.

    If that doesn't help please try this Microsoft FixIt solution and reboot: Your CD or DVD drive can't read or write media

    If that also doesn't solve the problem please try to manually delete upper/lower filter as described here (Resolution):
    The CD drive or the DVD drive does not work as expected on a computer that is running Windows Vista (also works on Windows 7).

        I have had trouble with using DTL with Windows 8 64-bit. After installing it; the names of my harddisks seen in properties had their names jumbled up. For example, my Plextor was seen as LPXEOT, and ST3000DM001 became TS0300MD00-1 etc.
        Uninstalling DTL did not solve this; and I had to reinstall Windows to get it back to normal.
        I'm not 100% sure if DTL was the direct cause of it; but was told from few other forums that it was known to cause problems and advised to not use it. Anyway, I used it mainly to mount ISO's, but didn't realize Windows 8 has that function now.

          This is not due to DT. This is a known issue with specific versions of Intel RST driver.
