Virtual CD Problem

Post by Pablo Sanchez »

Attempting to use VirtualCD 5 has proved problematic. After my system locked up thanks to a problem with a game, I restarted and found that I now had two phantom drives in addition to a functioning virtual drive. They claim to be a DVD Drive and a CD drive, but they cannot be used by the program to mount images and cannot be removed, it appears that the computer believes them to be legit drives.

Any ideas on what to do? It's no big problem, it's just an annoyance.
