I downloaded a game which is an ISO file but the problem is that i dont have a burner. The other option a friend told me i could choose was to mount the ISO file to a virtual drive. I have no idea how to do this and would like some serious help. Thanks in advance :)
 
Google a program called 'Virtual Clonedrive' from Slysoft. It will appear in 'My Computer' as a CD/DVD drive, and you can simply doubleclick the ISO to 'load' the media, and its totally free: see my source for download location
 
Try google

In Linux, you mount it using a loopback option to an empty directory, somethng like
# mount -t iso9660 -o /dev/loop0 foo.iso /tmp/myiso
 
You need an application such as Daemon Tools to do this for you. This is freely downloadable. This comes with instructions.
As David said VirtualCloneDrive will also do the job.
