hey guys,,,
if you ever want to mount a folder as a hard drive,,try this out.. you don't need extra softwears to do this..
go to the original hard drive and create folder names "test1"
remember the path
Ex: c:\test1
and then goto the command promt ( DOS ) and type this code
Subst z: c:\test1
there u go u can find the new drive in my computer.
if there's not just refresh the my computer
"z:" is the drive letter that u want the folder to be mounted
and "c:\test1" is the path of the original folder..
u can install any application to this virtual hard drive.. the space will be used from the real hard drive..
if u want to unmount this virtual z: drive
.just type the code below
Subst z: /d
there u go....
u can mount any amount of virtual drives..
nerd: i sugest u to mount the drive letters from Z-A. Becoze then there will be less chance get the same letter to ur virtual drive and to ur usb drive when u plug one.
)
by the way although u mount the virtual drive; whenever u restart the machine thos drives will be automatically unmounted..if u want to keep them for ever follow the steps,
1)goto the not pad and type the command
Ex: subst z: c:\test1
2)save the file.
3)change the ".txt" extestion to ".bat"
if u can't see the extention,goto the folder option and untick
hide extention for known file types
4) then move the file to the startup folder......
( start >all programms right click and open the startup folder and place the file)
and then you are done
try this out and give some comment
