Nero 6.6.0.18 in XP

Same as Georgio with DVD + works fine. BTW I don't understand the sentence "lost that CD" and where it fits in in the context of burning a Vista DVD--and to attack the nero "crash" someone would need to know what version--most DVD burners are including 6.0--and I find using the original Nero works better than the CD included with most writers. Check the site and make sure you have all patches.

OK I used Nero and it did work fine, Sort of. It keeps saying at the start of the burn the file is to big to make a bootable disc with. So I just burn it as a not bootable and it won’t open when I re boot and then when I click on it it wants to use Nero to open it. What am I doing wrong?

I don't think you should even have the option to burn as a non-bootable dvd. You are using the wrong burn function. You should be simply transfering the image to the disc. The image is already bootable. It just needs to be put on physical media. Use the "burn image to disc" function. Don't use anything to build a dvd.

Justin,

I use nero 7 with no problems.Ultra iso is also a great program to use.I did have a problem with the first vista download as the boot file and autorun file were currupt.Had to download again. Do as Colin suggests.Close the wizard window and check "burn image to disc" on the remaining window.

well as i said... i got a new burner... burned a vista CD in xp.. worked great.. installed vista.. didnt go so well.. running in to some weird issues, want to install it again but i lost the dvd i burned the first time.. so now im in vista, with just the ISO file and no vista CD to reinstall with... so.. i need to burn another vista CD inorder to reinstall....
and i have no idea what version it is.. the CD says OEM Suite and no version number.. and since it crashes before i can even get in to it i cant really check the version number..
so the actually question was what do you use IN VISTA to burn the CD... your telling me you used XP which im well aware works fine..
Thanks for the suggestion, i'll try downloading the newest copy and give that a try.
