Mounting an ISO Image in Windows 8, 8.1 or 10On Windows 8 and 10, Windows has the built-in ability to mount both ISO disc image. You have three options. You can:. Double-click an ISO file to mount it. This won’t work if you have ISO files associated with another program on your system. Right-click an ISO file and select the “Mount” option. Select the file in File Explorer and and click the “Mount” button under the “Disk Image Tools” tab on the ribbon.Once you’ve mounted the disc image, you’ll see it appear as a new drive under This PC. Right-click the drive and select “Eject” to unmount the ISO file when you’re done.Mounting an ISO Image in Windows 7 or VistaOn older versions of Windows, you’ll need a third-party application to mount ISO image files.
Calmira Windows 7
We like, a simple and open-source disc mounting program. It supports ISO files and other disc image formats. WinCDEmu is even useful on Windows 8 and 10, where it will allow you to mount the BIN/CUE, NRG, MDS/MDF, CCD, and IMG image files that Windows still doesn’t offer built-in support for.Install WinCDEmu and give it permission to install the hardware driver it requires. After you do, just double-click a disc image file to mount it.
You can also right-click a disc image file and click “Select drive letter & mount” in the context menu.You’ll see a simple interface for choosing the drive letter and other basic options. Click “OK” and the mounted image will appear under Computer. To unmount the disc image when you’re done, right-click the virtual disc drive and select “Eject”.
Of course people let Windows 3.x and all olds OSes.Cuz now, the lone important thing for young people is these fucking VIDEOGAMES.Microsoft finally found the way to make people abort his old OSesI'd rather not be ranting about that. Developing free (and open-source) applications takes time you're not paid for, and because of that, they're mostly spare-time projects. If the project is cancelled, it's because someone here has a life and cannot afford spending time on such a minor project anymore.And I'd especially not blame either videogames or Microsoft. I think Redmond has long forgot about their legacy systems, and I wouldn't blame someone for playing videogames (which is not a bad thing at all when done moderately) when I don't even know what he actually does in his spare time.Introducing Windows 95.It lets you use more than eight characters to name your files. Imagine that.
It's nice to see that there are still people that like my project. Well, Vorro I'm stopping it for now. I have many other things to do, for example developing of 'KYBLSoft Editor', or working in MP-Tuners Studios (my own organization), developing websites that I get paid for. I don't have time for Calmira Longhorn. I even don't have time for my girlfriend so. =))and I'll glad to see you all on new multilingual mp-tuners.net that will be launched this summer (by now, it's slovak only).If anybody needs delphi or resource workshop just ask, i'll upload them on my server and put link here. I used french version of Delphi for Calmira Longhorn 3.5 and final result was, that english calmira has a 'french button bug' (every button, like yes, no or cancel) was in french language.-Posted: Thursday 2 July 2009 13:29Today I've got very interesting mail.
It was posted not just to me, but to every calmira developer known on scene. (it was also posted to Ervin Dotker from Calmira II Team, Alexander de Sousa - developer of Calmira LFN, and Lionel Lowie - developer of Calmira XP 4.0). I don't know how others responded, but at least for me Calmira is now stopped project.here it is. Hello.As a first, I have to thank you for your efforts about Calmira. Thanks, because it is common heritage & history, and should be remembered,at least as a step in evolution of OS & GUI.I used Calmira for years, and it was great, and really fast at old comps.I am writing you this letter as a support for a possible continuing of development!I want to encourage you, because you could make Calmira useful again!
Your effort until now could be valuable again!There are many new ARM processor based platforms in developing, iPhone is just one of more famous.Some of them are 'smartphones', some are 'net tablets', 'netbooks', 'palmtops', 'modern handhelds' etc.Many Intel, Nokia, Palm, Sony etc platform developed/ are in developing. But there are plenty of new, open source based: I'll mention two, most interested to me:BeagleBoard and Pandora (BTW I'll be happy owner of Pandora quite soon).There is also battle about different OSes which will drive those hardwares: Android, Maemo, Angstrom Linux, OS X iPhone, ACESS Linux, WebOS (even 'old' as Windows Mobile, Symbian) etc.Most of them are Linux/Linux based. Some (many?) of them will have some kind of (Linux flavour of) DOSBox (which is already ported to generic ARM) ported to its own platform.This is where things are starting to be interested:Range of emulating PC is 286-486, from 33-100mhz. Nobody knows exactly, because it is too many factors (This chart could be of relevance).What is already proven is that Win 3.1x will work for sure at DOSBox.
Speed could be a problem for sure.If you saw those modern GUIs on those mobile gadgets (resolution is mostly from 320x400 - 800x600px).well, I think that it could be easy graphically emulated at Calmira. At least, it should not be much more problem then XP/Vista!And if there works only a few essential apps like calculator, notepad, minesweeper, lview. It is just enough!I think this project could be fun!
I like retro, and now Calmira even more then before!I'm not a programmer, but I'm ready to help with this project. I'm ready to start programming, even for 16bit Delphi (Euphoria will be more apreciated)!Sorry pall(s) if I'm disturbing you, I just thought that you may just care.Here is info topic for new visitors at Pandora(/Gp32/Wizz/etc) forum called 'The Pandora can not run Windows (or WINE)' Posted 17 May 2009.Soon people started to protest:'I know this is highly pedantic but i'm fairly certain Windows 3.1 is possible via Dosbox.' And it almost over with state 'Windows 3.1 is not useful in any way for what people want to do.' Proove it other! (BTW I'll start there new topic about that subject)Please mail me without obligations, I'm interesting at your opinion.Best regards,Darko Bednjanec, CroatiaP.S.How Calmira works with Win32s, Wing etc?I remember that I run e.g.
Xara 32-bit at Win 3.11. And there was some german guy that was 'hacked' 32-bit apps to work [email protected], I got somewhere on floppy 'portable' (ram-disk based) Win 3.1x -but without Calmira. That's very impressive to see a man who is always interested in Calmira Project and old OSes!He's right to say Windows 3.x is enough, with Notepad, Word 6, etc., and that's not useful to put a Windows Vista on a heavy configuration, just to edit files.
Even DOS and Windows 1x or 2x can do that thingAs for my continuation with Calmira. I've too much things to do, like study for my exam (but it's done), VB Projects ^^, or anything else, and on top, Saturday, I'll spend my holidays to Normandie, so I wouldn't be able to continue this project. (Maybe during holidays, I will make a few new Calmira Projects )The Website isn't online, but the interface is done.So if ya want me to upload it, ask me.Mon blog sur l'avant-garde.
There isn't a damn thing wrong with 8 other than people not wanting to learn something new.My Mother is 77, I have an Aunt close to that. They have both used a computer since Win98. They both have new laptops with Win8 on it and like the performance but hate the UI. Quite frankly, they get lost and wish now they had kept their old laptops. They don't want or need to learn something new, nor should MS have taken it upon themselves to FORCE people to do so. There should have been a choice between new 'Modern' and old 'Classic' Windows, imho.
Face it Phoon, it isn't like going from rotary dial to touchtone telephone or B/W to Color TV. It's tossing out most of what you know about interacting with a computer and starting over.I predicted early on that OEM's would end up with a huge backstock of unsold Win8 machines and I think this is just a move by HP to give the market what it wants. (HP needs all the help they can get in the sales department) I suspect other OEM's to follow suit and sell off any remaining Win 7 machines and limit their production of Win 8 rigs that will gather dust. It's all about shareholders and profit and investing in technology that doesn't sell is a sure fire way to lose money. I predicted early on that OEM's would end up with a huge backstock of unsold Win8 machinesPeople are also failing to consider that around and since the time that 8 was released there has been a tremendous surge in tablet sales. That, along with the fact that a large number of Win7 systems still function just fine are major contributors. It's way to easy to just point the finger at Win8 and lay the blame.
It's a Witch!!).The learning curve, while steep, is not a 90 degree angle. It isn't that difficult at all with a few hours of solid use. However, for a 77 year old it MAY be a bit harder.
The transition from 3.x to 95 was radical as hell but the pc to people ratio was considerably less as well.It's a never ending (for now) debate but at some point the debate WILL be over. It IS the way MS is heading, with a universal theme across all MS devices and will be the norm in no time. Bringing the old style start menu back would be silly (IMO). Time will tell on that one as well. Jafo, I've seen plenty of articles and info stating pretty much what I said concerning the tablet and 7 scenario.
Calmira Windows 3.1
Just like you've seen plenty that points to your view. I think there is a halfway point in there somewhere that is the actual truth between our views.
I'll stand on my ground that 8 is NOT a 'dud' and it's people that just refuse to give it a solid workout and have to rely on their crutches to walk with it that give it the bad reviews.From a customization standpoint, it falls short. From an operation standpoint, it out performs anything prior to it. From an operation standpoint, it out performs anything prior to it. Performance is much better but. I was 38 before windows 95 existed.and have used EVERY MS OS since Dos 4 and later messed with older things from the first windows and Dos as a standard/primary OS.The only one that didn't exist for me as a daily user was Vista.as it was released too early for its own good.and did not have drivers available for my DSL Modem connectivity.so it remained dead in the water until 7.I have no issues changing OS GUIs.
Being one of not all that many those here that used alternative shells as an every-day standard.and there have been many of those, not 'just' Litestep.There's one called Calmira. Gives you a GUI from eg XP to re-shell your Windows 3.11.There are 3rd party Dos GUIs shells I used to use.eg. Gorin.I do not have an issue at all with DIFFERENT interfaces.as long as they have actual inherent practicality.8 does not.Its kernel is better than 7's.but its shell belongs on an idiot mobile phone, not without third party help which it shouldn't need if MS had got it right in the first place. I need to add.Win ME didn't stay long as an every-day OS. It suffered from an over-zealous system-restore generator that invariably choked the harddrives of the time. they weren't all that big.
It was 'amusing' watching the OS choke itself to death filling the drive.8's on the Laptop. Saved by Stardock. And I am yet to do the Mac thing of adding OS point systems 8.1 as it's more appropriate to wait until MS quietly concedes defeat and makes an actual OS for a workstation again. Jafo I agree that MS should get it right in the first place but we customize our gui's anyway. I just don't get complaining how it looks.
The way my laptop is set up you would not know I was running windows 8.1 unless you checked system properties. What is the big deal with taking an OS that works better, but looks ugly and making it look good and even be more user friendly with the help of Stardock software. Like I said most if not all on this site will do it anyway on any system that can be customized. Junior.it's not about the 'looks'.it's not about loading or not Windowblinds.
It's about Start 8 and ModernMix in particular.Having an 'ugly' OS is NOT the issue.they have apart from 7, really ALWAYS been ugly.which is why I'm a skinner.it's why we all became skinners or use their products.It's sheer common-sense functionality.and 8 is simply that perfect adage.a 'Jack of all trades and master of none.' I don't own a pad. I don't own a Windows phone either.
But MS wants me to standardize my interface?Bit bloody presumptuous!
