nevermind, it is indeed in that d-tools download, I already had it, just needed a reboot.

thanks, nice.

BTW, I'm planning to make a rip of my (legal) bf1942 disc 2 so I don't have to keep the CD in the drive and (I hear, at least) make DC levels load fester.

D-Tools will support lots of formats, including bin/cue and blindwrite. Does anyone know which of these is faster and/or has lowest CPU overhead when mounted as a phantom drive?

Thanks in advance for any info you might have, theoretical or empircal.
