Disk Image Program
« on: June 27, 2004, 10:10:49 AM »
 :)  Does anyone have recommendations for disk-imaging programs.    

I want to  keep my grandson from "fooling" with the cd-rom drive drawer. I want to put all his little games into the computer instead of constantly changing disks when he gets bored.    Then I will put the disks away, duct tape the drawer closed and let him "have at it."

And...  I really need to "childproof" his whole computer.  Wonder if there's a way to hide the desktop system icons from him.  He's a little tinkerpot and wants to click on every icon he sees and twist every button.  

TIA

You can remove the desktop items.

Or you can download special programs (I donot know any names) that make computers more suitable for children.

Ofcourse, you could ret to plug the mouse into the wall-socket and he'll probably never try double clicking again.

Programs such as Alcahol 120% can and Daemon can run Disk Images.

According to a poster who posted here not too long ago, I donot know how it works, but you can download a demo version. I believe it can create disk images as well.
