My virtual environment loads it fine and I get the installation/repair menu when I mount it. This computer won't boot from it, though - F12 on start up and selecting the HDD loads windows as usually, so apparently it's not reading it? I burned the disk on Sonic at 4x speed, but otherwise didn't make any change from the default burning settings. Is there anything else I should change?

Magic ISO says it's bootable. I didn't make any changes except to integrate the drivers for my HD. The disk contains: Directories DOCS DOTNETFX l386 SUPPORT VALUEADD Files AUTORUN.INF LAST SESSION (205312.11-21.40.03).INI LAST SESSION (205312.11-21.40.03)_U.INI LAST SESSION (205312.11-21.46.34).INI LAST SESSION (205312.11-21.46.34)_U.INI LAST SESSION.INI LAST SESSION_U.INI README.HTM SETUP.EXE SETUPXP.HTM WIN51 WIN51IP WIN51IP.SP2 Any ideas?

Thanks a lot for the reply! I did set it to boot from the CD, yes (f12 during start-up and then CD/DVD from the options list), but I haven't tried running the ISO in a virtual environment. I'll try that, and also take a look at the CD contents so I can list them, after work today. Thanks!

I have a new Toshiba laptop (exact specs here - pdf) and I'd like to install XP on it instead of Vista. I have a clean copy of XP pro with SP2, and I downloaded the SATA drivers from the intel site (originally I was using a floppy to install them, which worked fine until the end when it stopped reading the floppy drive, so I moved to trying to slipstream them with nLite). I had no problem copying the windows CD or inserting the drivers and it appears to have created the ISO and burned properly, but upon trying to boot the Toshiba from the CD I get the following text: PXE-E61: Media test failure, check cable PXE-M0f: Exiting PXE ROM. NTLDR is missing Press ctrl+alt+del to restart Anyone have any words of wisdom as to why this happened or how to fix it?
