Daemon Tools free version is the best emulator, as it can mount a variety of formats, including alcohol 120 images, blindwrite images, etc. It can even emulate SafeDisc and other protections.
You definitely need to try installing dtools. Have you looked into their forums ? Its full of workarounds for every situation.
^^ +1 for that, You try their forums, I got a BSOD once when I installed DT for the first time, and their forums were very helpful. And Magic Disk is a okay emulator, but DT surpasses it.
