If the linux box can boot from it I will assume that you did not do the number 1 mistake, which is to burn the cd with the ISO image as a file on it, instead of buring the ISO image as the filesystem on the CD. The most likely problem, then, is that you do not have the BIOS set up on the windows machine to bood from CD before booting from the hard drive. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- DDDD David Kramer [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://thekramers.net DK KD DKK D Martial arts, politics, war... they are all just ways DK KD of bending the universe to your will.
