Create bootable CD

[creedprg]

Good day;

I have a copy of Windows XP in my harddrive and i transfer it to my CD by using NERO BOOT CD but suddenly it gives an error message "CANNOT BOOT FROM CD ERROR CODE - 5" What does this mean?

Please help i want to transfer my windows XP to CD. but it should be bootable.



Thanks

in what format is the CD on your HD?

1.) ISO/BIN - then burn straight as image...

2.) as File structure, ie. all files single within their respective Folders? then I suggest you DL nLite and create a bootable Image from these files...

3.) in Nero, you need a Boot Sector, then the Autorun info on the CD, otherwise it is not bootable as persay...
