DAEMON Tools is an advanced application for multiprotection emulation.
DAEMON Tools is further development of the Generic Safedisc emulator incorporating all its features. This program allows running backup copies of SafeDisc (C-Dilla), Securom or Laserlock protected games.
It emulates max. 4 DVD-ROM drives and works with CD/DVD images created by many burning programs
DAEMON Tools works under Windows9x/ME/NT/2000/XP with all types of CD/DVDROM drives (IDE/SCSI) and supports nearly any CD protection.
■ DAEMON Tools needs a 1:1 Copy to run!!
■ DAEMON Tools is used to RUN GAMES, NOT TO BURN THEM!!! Means emulation must be active while you want to play a game, not while burning the copy (except for you want to use DAEMON Tools' "fastdump" feature on a safedisc protected CD).
■ If you want to run a copy protected application from an image mounted to a Generic DVD-ROM enabling the copy protection emulation(s) is NOT necessary!!
■ Generic DVD-ROM is able to run nearly every protected or unprotected CD image (Safedisc, Securom, Laserlock, Lockblocks etc.) like it was the original CD! Just do an image file using one of the supported burning programs and mount it with Daemon Manager!
DAEMON Tools supports the following image files:
■ cue/bin
■ iso
■ ccd (CloneCD)
■ bwt (Blindwrite)
■ mds (Media Descriptor File)
■ cdi (Discjuggler)
■ nrg (Nero)
■ pdi (Instant CD/DVD)
■ b5t (BlindWrite 5)
■ b6t
■ isz
Limitations:
· DAEMON Tools is freeware ONLY for PRIVATE USE. If you use it in a commercial environment, for example your office or an Internet Cafe, you must register DAEMON Tools. One license is needed for every PC you run DAEMON Tools on. If you run our program on school or university PCs no further action is required.
