    What ?

    Not sure what you are asking.

    If you want to know what type of dvd to make a Windows Installation dvd with, you need a DVD+R or DVD-R

    Hello JiiJii,

    If you mean that you have a Windows 7 ISO file, then you could use the program in the tutorial below to create a bootable Windows 7 installation DVD with the ISO file.

    Afterwards, you could create a new folder (ex: Drivers) on another DVD, and copy all of your driver installation files into it to have handy to use when the Windows installation is complete.

    Of course, using a USB flash drive instead of a DVD will be easier and faster.

    Hope this helps, :)

    After you burn the iso to the dvd, you can`t add anything else to it.

    You have to add the drivers to the dvd before you burn the iso file.

    Put the drivers on a cd or a usb flash drive.

    Read over Clean Reinstall - Factory OEM Windows 7 especially the steps about drivers in red so you understand how these are handled in Win7 which is different than XP.

    You do not need any but the network driver which provides your connection - is it Ethernet or Wireless? Put it in your backup with your files on a stick or CD. You may not need it but if you don't start up ready to connect you can install it to get online and do your Updates.

    Win7 will provide all other drivers during install and via Windows Update after install when you get online and Check for Updates, install all Important and Optional.
