Windows7 RC Installation DVD will (still do) not start

[SIRThomasTMC]

Hello,

downloaded the Windows7RC (checksum correct) and burned it on DVD (RW).

Cannot open the DVD in XP and on booting it isn't recognized too.

So I had the idea to mount it and install it from harddrive, but the mounted drive has only a readme-file in it with this in it

This disc contains a "UDF" file system and requires an operating system

that supports the ISO-13346 "UDF" file system specification.

No idea how to get this problem solved *sigh*

Hello.

warum installierst Du W7 nicht von der Festplatte unter XP? - thats simple.

Unpack with 7-ZIP and klick auf die SETUP.EXE.

bye

Gute Idee,

aber geht auch nicht.

Unpacking with 7zip does not work either.

After unpacking I only have the readme.txt and a folder [boot] with one file in it

Bootable_NoEmulation.img

But the iso is 3,18 GB (3.416.074.240 Bytes) big and the md5 is like it should be.

----

idea, too old 7zip Version and after getting newer 7zip version, it works!

Thanks. Danke!!

EDIT:

Ok, after extracting it it will not run because I have downloaded th 64bit version but my XP is 32bit.

Argh, what can I do now?
