| Windows XP 64bit CD/ISO
Hi, can someone please help as this is doing my head in.
I recently downloaded an ISO of windows XP pro 64bit for my machine, when I open this file into MagicISO or UltraISO it says at the top of the screen "bootable" so I then burned this ISO to a CD and re-started my machine with the disc inserted, the bios on my machine is set to boot from CD, but when it comes to the CD it just says "Boot from CD, Boot from CD" and then continues to load my current version of windows.
Does anyone know how I can extract the boot files from the ISO and re-build the Boot disc using Nero, I will then create a boot disc with nero, selecting these new files as the boot files and then put the rest of the files on the CD as they are extracted.
Any help would be very appreciated. |

With nero just cancel the first screen then go: recorder, burn image.
Did you try this?

Yes went RTM but still cant currently download the trial, and you have to pay postage on the shipping costs of the CD |
