@Gerald Gibson:
You would need to Hack the VHD API and have a parser for ISOs. The reason I said that it can handle ISOs theoretically is that in the API when you deal with disks, it asks what kind, with the options being VHD, ISO or Unknown. I suspect that microsoft plans to add ISO support, but for some reason didn’t yet. Could it be done by a third party? I don’t know. If you want to give it a try I could send you what I have on it, but it’s very complex.

Interesting. What do you need to do to use it with iso files?

@PTLdom:
To mount VHDs from DMC you need to go to the Actions Menu on top.

… well … I simply

1- right-click on the startup “computer” label,
2- choose “diskmanagement”,
3- wait for the central area/column filling in
4- and click on “more actions” in the right column … where is the “attach vhd” option

@justnakenny: Works fine for me. What browser are you on? Have you tried clearing browser cache?

Ashraf,

It looks like the download link isn’t working, not even on their homepage. the link for VHD attach.
