Q: How do I mount a disk image on an eMac?

Every blog I read says all I need to do is double click the image to mount it, but it just says "There is no default application specified to open the document " .exe"

It gives me the option to chose a file but idk what to do. Please help.

    If it's a Windows executable file other than a self-extracting zip, you won't be able to open it without installing Windows; on a PowerPC Mac, this requires Virtual PC or the Q emulator.

    If it's a self-extracting zip, StuffIt Expander will open it.

    If it's actually a disk image, change its extension to dmg or iso and double-click it.
