    Virtual CD emulator for Vista?

    So I downloaded a giant game yesterday, and the files are all .bin. I don't really want to have to burn them to 4 CDs, just to turn around and install the files back onto my machine. I've found references to virtual CD emulators that allow you to bypass that step, but they are only for XP. Anyone know of a way to do this in Vista?

    Is it sad that I initially thought you were making a joke about my drinking?

    Urgh, got a program to work, got 5 virtual drives going, got the game installed, and all I get is the closing credits.

    I guess this is what I get for trying to be cheap....

    I use MagicDisc on my 64bit Vista. The system try icon allows me to quickly mount/unmount a massive number of virtual drives quickly and without having to launch a cluttered interface.
