Well, I had about the same funny thing happen yesterday. When I tried to install the latest Daemon Tools version (3.33) I got either a blue screen error or a reboot whenever the virtual scsi driver loaded (this was in XP). The really hilarious thing was 1) all my discs are NTFS 2) this happened even in safe mode, and a repair install didn't fix it. Now I am such a hardware god that ofcourse I had switched off system restore on all my drives, so I could forget about that option too. In the end, I solved it by booting my pc in safe mode for about 20 consecutive times, each time trying to get in the device manager and delete all virtual scsi devices (I had three conflicting versions) before those were loaded and my pc rebooted. A lot of fun. So, since yesterday I officially switched to Alcohol120%. Daemon Tools is a very good (free) program, but the amount of sh*t I've been having with its install routine is breath taking. So my advise is, try to remember what you installed yesterday, something was definitely acting up.
