2.1.3.1 Adding a Disk Image
You may add an existing disk image from any location. A single disk image file has the file extension .DIM.
As well, you may manually assembly a disk image from a disk image that has been split into chunks.
These raw chunks can be created by any third-party program (for example, WinHex or Active@ Undelete) and can have any file extension. Common file extensions are
.RAW and .IMG.
To add a disk image from another folder:
- Click Add.... The Add Image dialog box appears.
- To load a disk image from a single file:
- Select the Load Image check box.
- Click the ellipsis (…), browse to the folder and select the disk image file.
