February 24, 200818 yr Hi,I finished up my winnt.sif file and Im ready to burn it onto a DVD.A few questions though....1. What IMAGE FILE do I need in order for the new DVD-Bootable media to work on start-up??Because I did one for Win2000 Pro, and I had to locate a image file called MICROSOFT CORPORATION.IMG.....So what would be for the XP and where should I copy and paste this into?2. Also, whar type of DVD-Rs should I get??? Should I get the + or - R ??Please help.

Use an application such as Nero to burn your files to DVD and make sure that you specify that Nero should use the ripped boot sector files for the DVD.2. It depends on what your writer can burn. Some can burn only one of these formats, others can burn both. It also depends on the reader you want to read them in later. My laptop has more difficulty reading DVD-R, than DVD+R, hence I always use DVD+R's to burn my files on.
