Hey, I have been attempting to fix this for the past week or so with no luck what so ever. Being a big pc game, I find the need to use virtual drives. I'm running Windows Media Center 2005. I was using Daemon Tools for the longest time, however, i tried to use it the other day and I got an error. I reinstalled it however upon the Sptd driver install I get an error saying "System file read error". I looked all over their forums and could not find a solution that worked for me. So I tried installing Alcohol 120%, however, again upon install in get another similar error which will not let it install. I have tried everything... registry editing, deleting drivers manually, safe mode deletes and installs, ect... Nothing seems to work. I also tonight tried a couple other virtual drive programs, however, none of them work either! They install fine, but they wont mount any of the files. So my questions begin... Is there a certain driver or Setting on my computer that I need to add or change inorder for Virtual Drives to even work?
Also, I dont know if this has anything to do with my problems or not but looking on the Daemon Tools forums they say to delete any reference to SPTD on my computer and in my registry. Well in my C:\windows\system32\drivers folder I have a file called SPTD03 with no file extension. When I attempt to delete it I get an error saying "Cannot delete file: Cannot read from source file or disk". I dont know if that is causing my problems or not but I really want to delete that file. Also in my registry I have a sptd key that wont let me delete it unless I change the permissions on it. However, after I delete it and restart my computer the key just automatically reappears. Sorry if this is a lot to grasp and for the multiple questions, but it has been driving me crazy the past week or so. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!
