Windows features the capability to create a virtual disk drive. A virtual
disk drive is a special folder of an actual physical drive that
actually serves as a drive in its own right. You can, for example,
create a virtual CD-ROM or DVD-ROM drive in Windows. A key advantage of a
virtual drive is that it usually saves time. A virtual CD drive, for
example, can be read much faster than a physical CD drive because it
exists on the hard drive.
How to create virtual drive : .
• Click Start and then Run. Type cmd on the text area. Type subst x: "C:\windows" in the Command prompt.
• The letter "x" represents the drive letter of the virtual drive you wish to create. You can choose any letter as long as it doesn't already exist on your computer. However, do not use the letters A, C, E, F, or Q because they are common drive letters and your computer may already be using these letters.
• C:\windows represents the directory that you want to place your virtual drive. You choose any directory or file on your computer.
After you have input this information in the command prompt, you can view the new drive by going to My Computer.
