    I guess the title says it all. For some reason I can't install Alcohol 120 on my Netbook (Blue Screen on reboot during install) so I can mount and play ISO movies. Isobuster keeps telling me it's registered, but then says I need a key to play a whole movie (instead of one VOB at a time). I have a key, but since it says it's already registered, I can't enter it! :mad: Any suggestions?

    OK. Unless I'm missing something here, VLC does not play .iso files. It also doesn't appear to play .vob files. Anyone else have any suggestions? Even a paid program would be ok as I could probably find a crack for it!

    Maybe if you mount the ISO the files inside will be accessible to play. Have you tried extracting the contents. Usually an ISO is just a way of transferring data over the net. Is this answering your question or is there something else I need to understand?

    Mount the iso with free DAEMON Tools Lite and play each VOB file by Media Player Classic [by installing K-Lite Mega Codec Pack].....

    Open VLC, then drag the ISO file on to it.

    Thanks, but what you're suggesting is just what I'm trying to do. Isobuster will mount the ISO file, but it won't allow me to play it. I downloaded Daemon Tools and DVDfab and will give them a try.

    I must have done something wrong then 'cause it didn't work for me. When I clicked on the ISO file, all I got was a warning saying it couldn't play that type of file. I also clicked on the VOB file and nothing at all happened! :(

    When I do that, here is what I get:
    "No suitable decoder module: VLC does not support the audio or video format "undf". Unfortunately there is no way for you to fix this."
    Either that or absolutely nothing happens.
