hello guys, i got appointed over here because im in a bit of a problem. i have two windows xp +sp2.iso's from when i had virtual pc, and i need to burn one of them to a cd so i can reinstall windows xp on my windows computer. i was wondering if you could help me out on how i can burn the iso on the cd, make the cd bootable, and run it on my pc like it was the real deal. in other words, make it work like a real windows xp cd. i have toast titanium 7 and the serial numbers and everything, i just need to know how to burn it properly, so it acts like a install cd. i currently have blank CD-R's DVD-R's and CD-RW's so. Thanks for your help!
 
Why do you have Toast Titanium? Those that buy that optional CD burning software do so for the infinitely easy way it can burn an image file to a CD.

Check the help files of Toast if this is still not making sense.
 
You can also use disk copy.

Drag the iso onto it then select burn

However, as has been said Toast Titanium will do it. Just read the docs.

Foamcow,
Do you mean Disk Utility? That will also burn iso files.
luke - disk utility is part of a standard Apple OS X install, so should be in the Utilities folder within the Applications folder.

soi la, soi carré
 
Sorry, yes I meant Disk Utility.
