There *may* be utilities available that can "mount" such a file and make it look like a CD, but the normal thing to do with these files is to burn them to a CD using software that knows how to handle such image files. (Most CD- burning software probably qualifies.) You will probably then find that the CD includes an install/load routine for the files you need on your hard drive. David Gillett "Hold No Punches.."
