nLite bootable CD probs

[mheffernan]

Hi, all...

I have carefully used nLite to create a bootable .ISO image using Win2k. Using CDCreator ver 7 , "make bootable CD" option using .ISO image. Doesn't work. When inserted in a PC with CD as first boot device, the workstation recognized the CD as bootable, mentions 1.44 floppy emulation and just stops.

DIR on the the CD reveals both .BIN file and .ISO that I created with nLite. Previously, I have successfully created several bootable CDs with Winternals ERD for Windows Servers (a *great* product - saved *my* a**!)

Anyhow, I'm following instructions I see posted to the letter; what am I missing?

TIA

Mike

the produced iso image contains all headers to be bootable..

using a an app to add a new boot info, you will replace the boot infos added by nlite..

just use nero or cdrwin to burn the iso image.

this would have been better off asked in the nlite support forum, thats why its there, so u can get support for nlite probs

i dont use roxio, but if it asks for floppy emulation, select no

(this is how its done in nero & they are basically the same except nero's engine is better )

Thank you for the replies.

Are the two of you saying that, contrary to the representations on the nLite site, Roxio's CDCreator cannot be used with nLite's .ISO file? Considering that I used the same app to make ERD CDs, I wonder about that. However, if I must get Nero, I will try it.

RE: which forum, I was directed to this forum by the Help section on the nLite page; I am not sure this is a nLite problem, tho...

Ah, thank you. My mistake was asking Roxio to supply the boot info; it was indeed overwriting the .ISO info.

Thank you, folks; much obliged.
