Programming Forum and web based access to our favorite programming groups.I downloaded a volume license copy of Windows XP from MSDN as an ISO file. Now I need to create a CD from this file. I downloaded ISOBuster that will extract an ISO file but I am not sure how to create the Windows XP CD. I have a writable CD in the CD writer drive but the ISOBuster application apparantly cannot read the blank CD ("D: is not accessible. Incorrect function") Do I simply extract the contents to a temporary folder on my hard drive and then use my regular CD burn software to copy the files onto the CD? Or is there a way to get ISOBuster to extract directly onto the CD? And what wxactly do I "extract" with ISOBuster: the CD object, the Session object, the track object or just the files themselves? .
Post Follow-up to this messageIf you extract the image to a file path then copy it to CD then it won't be bootable. I personally like ISOrecorder for extracting to CD - http://isorecorder.alexfeinman.com A> "Dave" <dave@nospam.ru> wrote in message news:OibSauW2EHA.2788@TK2MSFTNGP15.phx.gbl... >I downloaded a volume license copy of Windows XP from MSDN as an ISO file. > Now I need to create a CD from this file. > > I downloaded ISOBuster that will extract an ISO file but I am not sure how > to create the Windows XP CD. > > I have a writable CD in the CD writer drive but the ISOBuster application > apparantly cannot read the blank CD ("D: is not accessible.

Post Follow-up to this messageThanks Andy The notes on the web site are a little confusing. I am using XP Pro w/SP2 so it looks like I need to download the Beta 2 version. of ISO Recorder Have you used Beta 2 with XP Pro SP2?

Post Follow-up to this messageYou should be able to bypass using ISOBuster all together and open the iso file in your cd writer software, then burn to disk.

Post Follow-up to this messageYes, this ISORecorder works nicely.

Post Follow-up to this messageThanks Gary. Unfortunately my software apparently does not. All I got was a copy of the iso file burned onto the CD. But, as mentioned above, the ISORecorder did the job very well.
