Introduction to VirtuaCDVirtuaCD allows you to capture a compressed image of a CD-ROM and then use that image as if the disc were still present in a physically connected drive. This manual takes you through the installation procedure, how to use the product and how to troubleshoot problems you might encounter. System requirementsVirtuaCD requires a copy of CDFS that supports soft-loadable drivers, a CD-ROM drive from which to make CD-ROM image files and enough disc space to hold the images. VirtuaCD does not require a lot of performance from the computer in order to function, but the faster the computer and the faster the CD-ROM drive, the less time it will take to create the image files. The VirtuaCD licensing systemVirtuaCD uses a licensing system based on enabler and authorisation codes. An enabler code tells the VirtuaCD product what you are allowed to do with your copy, and what features are enabled. Currently, there are three types of enabler code:
An evaluation licence may be obtained from PEP Associates by emailing a request to virtuacd@pep-assoc.co.uk. Base and 5-drive licences may be purchased from authorised VirtuaCD resellers, or by post from PEP Associates. With the exception of the evaluation licence, which has to expire, the other licences require the installation of an authorisation code in order to prevent them from expiring. The authorisation code is obtained from PEP Associates only. This subject will be dealt with in more detail in the installation section of the manual.
