Paul Swanson came across this article that talks about an unsupported capability of MS that allows you to read an ISO file without having to burn to a cd. Not sure if you ever face this, but all the downloads in MSDN pretty much come in iso format. This will take the step out of burning the cd/dvd if you choose not to. I am in the process of using this and it seems to work so far. Enjoy… http://weblogs.asp.net/plel...
