Hi

I have download the "KNOPPIX_V3.7-2004-12-08-EN.iso" and have done the checksum.
I just brought a brand new system

How do i create a bootable using Nero 6 express.

I have tried making it by following the instruction
"Make a bootable disc",
"Use standard boot image" English US,
"Writing speed" 52x (7,800KB/s) & 48x (7,200KBs)
.....still cant boot.

Have tried make data dice.... cant work

Have tried "CDBurnerXP Pro 3"... cant work.

First of all, what did simply double-clicking the downloaded file launch? I've generally had success just letting the apps figure out how to handle the file by it's extension. Trying to manually open it from within the app sometimes results in just burning a copy of the ISO to CD rather than creating a bootable filesystem.

Secondly, I've had good luck in every Windows computer I've used it on with a freeware program called "BurnAtOnce." See here:

I like it because it is tiny, non-invasive, and gives a lot more textual info on what it is doing than the stuff that generally comes with pre-loaded burners. I normally go ahead and let it associate itself with ISO and CUE files, but that's your choice.
