How to use the ‘Nero Image Drive’ Utility
Information: The Nero Image Drive utility was designed to allow a person to
mount a Nero data Image file, with an extension of .NRG, in your Windows
Explorer window so that you could use it as if it were a normal Data CDROM.
You can only read data from this image, or copy the data from the Image to your
HD. You can not modify, add, or edit the original Image file.
You must first install the ‘Nero Image Drive’ utility, as it does not install by default.
When you do install this program, it will create an extra drive letter in your
Windows Explorer.
1) To install the Nero Image drive, go to Start -> Programs -> Ahead Nero -
> Nero ImageDrive Installer
