I've also heard that Alcohol 120% has the same problems as Daemon Tools.  Looks like Windows 7 needs a good disk emulator.  
Update:
Warcraft 3 RoC v1.0 works...

[teknojunkie]

I gave Microsoft the benefit of the doubt, and now I am really happy ! the way Windows 7 is turning out, hopefully no different versions, Ultimate, premuim, basic.. blah.
