I cant burn the iso, tried 4 different programs, ruined 8 dvds

Guest

please help

summary:I am having a lot of trouble burning the downloaded isos to dvd,
anyone who has had success, please provide the specific program, build, and
settings they used, also my files say they are 4.1 and 3.12 gb, could they be
corrupt?

details below


I can't get the ISO burn on the dvd, it says its successful on 4 different
programs
including Nero7 and sonic, when i put the "finished" dvd into the drive, it
does not even recognize that there is anything in the drive, I even tried
extracting the iso and burning the extracted files and running setup, which
does not work, so then i thought the isos i had might somehow be corrupt or
incomplete, so i downloaded both 32 and 64 biton a different computer on a
different connection with a different download manager, and tried burning
with the same results, plz anyone who has had success burning either the 64
bit i would really appreciate knowledge of a specific program, and what
settings anyone had success with, and how big are your isos, mine say they
are 4.1 gb for the 64 bit and 3.12 for the 32 bit, I fear I will have to
resort to buying and waiting for the dvd, i am a disgrace to geek kind

x86 - 3.12 GBs, so no problems there
x64 - 4.4 GBs, so you have a problem there

I used NERO 6.6a burn my ISOs.
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.


try reburning the ISO at a low speed, 2x recommended, also do a CRC check on
the ISO to find out its integrity. Nero MD5 Verifier is a recommended
choice. If setup still fails, its likely a bad download.

I use the one from Ahead Nero
http://ww2.nero.com/nero6/eng/Nero_MD5_Verifier.html

Here are the MD5/CRC values for x86 or x64 depending on which every ISO you
downloaded:

x86
- File Size = 3.12 GB (3,355,598,848 bytes)
- CRC Value = 0x67E089E0
- MD5 Value = 0E733AB1A8E8FF9A8684FD3639332773
x64
- File Size = 4.01 GB (4,309,368,832 bytes)
- CRC Value = 0x48697711
- MD5 Value = E43502D0A15EADD551119D5639859E04

Paste the MD5 Checksum for either x64 or x86 depending on which one you want
check in Step 1, Step 2 - Browse to where you stored the ISO on your drive
and open it and it will automatically start the varification process and
generate the has in the third field, if it matches Step 1, then you are
safe.

I am sure what I downloaded from connect is 4.5 GBs, also on the Get Ready
page, it says 4.4 GBs. Well, you are using it, so I guess, MS is wrong.
