Bootable Installation CD for X64 Beta

[Iceman]

I downloaded the .iso of the Beta version of XP X64, burned the .iso to CD and tried booting it, but it doesn't recognize the disk as bootable. How do I make a bootable installation disk?

I downloaded the .iso (from Microsoft's site) and it booted just fine.

I suggest checking your BIOS to make sure it will boot to a CD before the HD.

Totally forgot about the BIOS

I had cleared the CMOS an hour or so before I tried to boot the cd and the default must have the HDD boot first.

It's the little things that get you

I always hate how mine will try to boot from a jump drive or flash drive (if I have one in my USB port) before my hard drive. I have hard drive set first in the BIOS, but it must override the BIOS or something.
