CD2ISO is a simple tool to extract .iso images from your cd or dvd disk. It will
read any drive as raw disk, so you can also use it to make a sector dump of a
removable drive (cd, dvd or floppy).
Cd2iso works very straight-forward. It will dump raw sectors of a filesystem.
You do not need any additional dll files.
You can use it to make iso dumps of a CD or DVD drive, and to verify the
checksum of existing or just-burned disks.

most likely he was supposed to use the term drive, not driver. as in the
kind of virtual drive you can create with daemon tools or nero...

ie, put a iso on the hardrive, fire up daemon tools and point it to the
file. suddenly you have a new cd-rom drive that contains the iso :p

Programs such as Daemon Tools let you have a virtual CD drive. The
virtual drive is recognized by the OS the same way an actual CD drive
would be. Since you can't put physical CDs into a virtual drive, you
mount ISO images of CDs; once an ISO is mounted, the virtual drive
behaves just as if it had a CD in it. If you want to play around with
it, Daemon Tools is at <http://www.daemon-tools.cd/>.
