Burning ISO with ImgBurn

Why didn't you just use the Windows 7's inbuilt ISO burner and right click on the file -> Burn disk image?

Yep did that first up - twice Z and the disk didn't work so thought perhaps another app might fare better:)

Anyway gotta dash

Hum might try it on the laptop later if I get chance perhaps it might be this machine?

Just when you thought it was safe to go back into the water?

Hey fellas have been at this thing all day and found this but I cannot but cannot get the Vista folder to insert into the ImgBurn.

I open the ImgBurn as per these instructions and it opens the folder and just doesn't add it to the app to be burnt.

It has got me that mad now that I could eat my shoes!! I just don't want to give now as it is a matter of it or me!!

Seriously it is this sort of stuff that I find so complicated when it should be fairly simple or am I that stupid??

Hmmm. I wonder if there is something wrong with your source file. Where did you download it from? Also did you try PowerISO or is that no use either?

Yep TypeR I downloaded it from that Vishal is the and this one in Dell. The x14 folder has a slightly different number from Dell as I think that Vishal has the Ultimate and this is the Home Premium version in Dell.

I first picked the Vishal one from the Vista forum and then found the Dell in a reply from a local forum friend.

Now each time it takes forever to download along with the wim files too. What I cannot understand when it says to select the file / folder to be burnt is that the folder "Opens" out to it's constituent parts and is not dumped as Vista in the to burn box.

I did burn I think an ISO with the inbuilt Windows feature but the machine I stuck it in - no boot.

To burn an ISO using IMGBURN, do it:
Step: 1:


Step:2 :


Shortly it will be done.

BTW, what is the extension of the downloaded file? May we see the screenhot of the file, in explorer, with the downloaded file selected?

Ok Arc I'll tyr that but I did manage to get that Vista install folder into ImgBurn late last night and it displayed a message - non bootable.

But another og isn't going to hurt eh?:)

John, look at the first snip. It says "Write in image file to disc".

So, the thing you are writing is must to be an image file. Usual extension of such a file is .iso. Or it may be something like .bin, .cue, .mdf, .nrg or some more. And that is why I asked for a snip of the explorer window in which the downloaded folder is situated.

Upload that snip, as mentioned below.

(the partitions are hidden, coz many a times I am asked how can I get so many partitions lol.)

Hey Arc this is what I get with any of the options - these pics are write image file to disk then click on select a file.
