RC1 ISO file

[Guest]

I have burned the download as an ISO file. How do I get the program to
actually install? I have tried rebooting from the disk but it bypasses to
the hard drive.

You must burn the .iso file as an image, not a data file.
In Nero SmartStart you select "Burn Image to Disc" for the
proper transfer of the image to a DVD.

Hi,
In your bios;
there should be a setting;boot from disk.
On my Dell laptop;the key to get to this option is f12; I'm not sure what
you use; but that's where you need to look;boot from disc; and it's at
startup.
Also;even if you get there; there's a sentence that says;press any key to
boot from disc; if you don't see that;or fail to do that; it does bypass;and
go straight back to the hd boot.

You need to burn the image to a DVD first. After burning check that your PC
is set to boot to CD as the first boot option. You do this from the system
BIOS. If you machine is relativly modern (3 years or so) then the boot to CD
should be set by default. If it is set by default and the DVD still isn't
booting then the problem lies with the DVD you burnt. It is better to burn
at X1 or X2.5 rather than faster.
