I have all 3 .iso images for the cd and burned them with Nero but i cannot get it to boot from the install cd. I have set it so that all it detect is the cd and it says that there is an error. Do i have to make the cd a bootable cd? There are no direction what to do with the Mandrake iso images in Nero on their websight? Can someone tell me how to get it to work?
 
how did you burn them? im not familiar with nero, but with roxio there's an option that says something like create cd from cd image (ie ISO). Either you accidently burned the ISO as a large file onto a CD (which I have done before) or your PC wont boot with a cd.
 


<< Either you accidently burned the ISO as a large file onto a CD >>



That is what i did. But i am very unfamiliar with Nero, so i dont know how to burn it any differently. Does anyone know how to burn it right?

And i am 100% possitive my computer will boot with a cd.
 
Just use the Burn Image option under the file menu... select the iso file that you want to burn and
accept all of the default options... it should work without any issues...

 
in nero, just go to file > write image (might say burn image, i dont remember), then just hit OK. dont check the "raw data" box, don't change anything, just hit OK.
 
you mean linux drivers from for intellimouse from MS 😕 Use generic drivers. Mandrake should handle it fine. Did you configure mouse during installation?

Nopes... Like Mirc for IRC, Powerarchiver for compression, IE5 for internet, these in windows...

Xchat, gzip/gunzip, mozilla for linux!!
