How do I create a bootable CD Rom using Nero and this link?
I have an ISO image which when copied with Nero to my CD-R (as
Bootable CD or ISO CD) does not allow me to boot properly from. Either bypasses the CD on boot or I get an EMM386 message like some files are missing. So what am I missing? The ISO image is at this link: http://www.killdisk.com/downloadfree.htm (third link regarding CD image) I want to be able to create this as a Bootable CD for WIN9x, ME, 2K, XP. My machine has Nero and Win2k on it. Thanks so much Patty |

Note, too, that the BIOS itself is bypassed by Windows and that therefore a drive visible in Windows may not be in the DOS installed by the program. Mike -- http://www.mrichter.com/ |

Nero 6: [Recorder, Burn Image], then point to the .iso. |

Thanks I learned a lot on this:
The problem was that I did not know how to use Nero properly. Duh........ I was selecting a Nero 6 option originally to create a Bootable CD or ISO CD and then dragging and dropping the ISO image in the Nero Window Panes. Wrong-o-reeno. What I found out above (thanks) probably in the instruction manual (Mike R) was that I needed to: 1. Go to Nero Express (version 6). 2. Click on the last item "Disc Image or Saved Project". 3. Then select Image Files (.iso, .nrg, cue) 4. Burn Perhaps my original way seemed more intuitive based on the program and my naivety---but I was wrong and the above process worked. Thanks all.
