Right, I need help making a bootable ISO. Must be something I'm doing wrong. I bought Norton Ghost from the Norton download website. Apparently it's an ISO that you burn to disc and the PC should boot from it. It doesn't, any ideas?
I burnt it as an ISO. Is there a difference between an ISO and an image? Does an ISO have any other files with it? I might be a bit thick at times.....
Sorted, it was me being thick. I raw a winwar archive file and unzipped that and added the lot to disc. Certain files appear as a winrar file when they are not. THAT is the ISO and I should have just added that.
I'm guessing that you just copied the iso to the disk? If so - that won't work. An iso is an image of a disk, so you need to use an iso burner to burn it to the disk. Windows 7 has a built in one - just right click on the iso and it should be there in the menu somewhere. Other versions of Windows need some extra software - easy enough to find on Google. Linux and the like have had iso burners for years - same access and Win7. EDIT: Damned ninja! Just copying across the files won't keep the bootable 'tags' that exist inside an iso - so you will get the files but it will not boot.
