Making a bootable dvd
.. --------------------------------------
Mike Richter, were you born with "Scam Artist" emblazoned on your face? -------------------------------------- Bob Administrator wrote: Hello smh, When I load the said iso file into PowerIso, the option to add boot in formation is greyed out, so I assume that the iso already has boot information , because it has a boot folder, but then I am not sure if boot info is in that folder, as I don't know what boot info is required. The iso is a windows app/program which I want to install on a free partition, and is about 2.3Gb in size. It has a boot folder included in the iso plus others when I view it in PowerIso. (What Windows are you using?) The greyed out option to add boot info could mean that PowerIso recognized the .iso is a Windows program and thus not making it bootable. Remember that when you boot, there is no Windows OS and Windows program will not run. The 'boot' folder may simply have images, like *.img, and programs to make bootable floppys, like makedisk.exe, with the images. Doubt that the 'boot' folder have a file like 'BootCatalog.cat'. What's the file name of the .iso? Maybe I can get some clue from it what the .iso is all about? What's the name of the Windows program in the .iso? Does the free partition have a drive letter assigned? Can't you specify the drive (partition) for the install location? .. ====================================== Mike Richter's Unadulterated White Lie ====================================== ====================== From: Mike Richter (the Slimiest Lying Friggin SOB) Date: 10/20/02 Subject: 4x CDRW's in 12x Writer? I have tested non-HighSpeed erasables in my 12x HighSpeed and 8x non-HighSpeed Plextors and find substantially higher error rates at 4x in the HighSpeed drives. ====================== The above is an unadulterated white LIE. There was NO way Mike Richter could have found "error rates". First, there was NO error rate measuring software supporting Plextors. Second, even if there was such a software, it could not have found error rates -- because the above Plextors do NOT report C1 errors. ------------------------------- Wow! What a slimy friggin SOB! ---------------------------------------------- Mikey, you are the Slimiest Lying Friggin SOB! ---------------------------------------------- Mike Richter, were you born with "Scam Artist" emblazoned on your face? -------------------------------------- (Mike Richter, any Material Connection w/ Roxio?) |
