I cannot seem to create a bootable DVD.
I used ImgBurn to create an ISO file from a Win 7 Pro X64 OEM disk. Then as a test, I tried to burn it back to a new DVD. I used a boot image file created from this machine, which is the exact same version of Win 7. I also tried creating a boot image file from the original Microsoft DVD.
Although examination shows all the same files, the copies will not boot.
I'm doing this so that I can eventually patch the installation files with a Microsoft Hotfix and some Intel USB drivers.
I'm probably missing something obvious, but I can seem to pin this down.
Thanks!

Mystery solved. The original Windows DVD has a hairline crack at the hub. Sometimes it will boot and sometimes it won't. All the copies I made are bad due to this. Guess I need to see if I can get a replacement or an ISO file.
Thanks!
