"Burn" iso file to HD or partition

[JR]

Hi folks,

For those of us fortunate enough to have d/led the iso file, but not so
fortunate as to have a (2 layer for x64) DVD burner:

Could you please explain how to "burn" the iso to a HD or partition?

Also, as I have a x64 computer with 32bit XP Media Center, is it possibe to
"boot" from the "burned" HD or partition, so as to create an XP32/Vista
dual-boot system? (I've read it's not possible to install Viata x64 from
XP32)

Hope this is clear....

Thanks,
JR

You can't burn an ISO to a partition, you can extract the contents of the
ISO to a folder on your drive, but you have Vista x64 so that would not be
possible.

The x64 ISO can be burnt a standard DVD 9 disk, no dual layer disk required.
Burning the ISO Image in NERO and Roxio Easy CD Creator:
NERO
Insert a Blank DVD, open Nero StartSmart > change the media type to DVD >
select Copy and Backup > click "Burn Image to Disc" > navigate to where the
Windows Vista BETA 2 Image is stored on your hard disk, (note: if you don't
see it, make sure the image file type is changed to ISO" click Open and the
burning wizard will automatically start.

Roxio
Open Creator Classic > click File > "Record Disc from Image" > navigate to
where the Windows Vista BETA 2 Image is stored >click Open and the burning
wizard will automatically start.

Ensure that the ISO burns at a low speed, recommended speed, 2x for best
results.
