Publisher's description
From Arainia Solutions :Gizmo Drive is a virtual device simulator which allows you to create password protected hard disk images with its proprietary GDRIVE format. Gizmo Drive also supports a number of standard image formats including: ISO, VHD, BIN, IMG, NRG, CCD, MDS, and MDF. These images can be mounted to any of the 26 virtual devices made available by Gizmo Drive's virtual device driver. When an image is mounted, it appears as an actual hard drive or CD-ROM device in Windows Explorer. These devices can be used to achieve a superior performance increase whenever a CD-ROM disc is extracted to its ISO form and mounted from the hard drive instead. Virtual devices are great for archiving purposes as well, and generally they are good at freeing up desk space by eliminating the need of having discs scattered all over the office.
Version 2.5.1 improves compatibility with the Windows Vista UAC.

Version: Gizmo Drive 2.5.1
"Wow. Very nice. Love the interface and all the other "gizmos""
Pros: Very slick. A real Power User utility. I was able to mount multiple ISO's simultaneously. I like the ability to turn on or off other "gizmos" that also come with, such as the Text Editor, Script runner, etc. I haven't tried them yet, but it is quite a package for a free utility. Also, I received a prompt reply regarding a support issue.
Cons: If you are using Vista make sure you download the very latest version from the manufacturer's web site. I did have technical issues under Vista but the latest version cleared them up.

"best support for windows vista i have seen"
Pros: when trying several OTHER image mounting tools -- including one released by Microsoft themselves -- it did not work with windows vista, but THIS gizmo drive certainly did work like a charm THANK YOU

Version: Gizmo Drive 2.5.1
"I don't know if I really understand how to use it"
Pros: It works in that I can access image files and that's all I wanted to do.
Cons: However it's not really intuitive to use and I'm not sure that I know what I'm doing.
