Thanks! I couldn't figure out what was wrong. My old system had a floppy drive so I was able to use a bootable floppy with Nero to make bootable CD's. But the system I have now (a laptop) doesn't have a floppy drive so I've been trying to use a floppy image file but I guess it doesn't have the needed drivers. And I appreciate your tip on where to look on Bootdisk.com for boot images that can be used without having a floppy drive... I've been trying to figure that out too

Just found ImgBurn. Great software... many thanks to the author for making this freeware! Nero Express, which came with my computer, is a nice program but ImgBurn gives me more options. I'm having a problem with boot CD's. This isn't limited to ImgBurn, but I just discovered it while trying out ImgBurn last night and you guys seem really knowledgable so I'm hoping you might help. When I burn a boot CD (using a basic MS-DOS boot diskette image), the resulting CD boots up my system fine but additional files I place on the CD aren't accessable. However, the whole CD is perfectly readable and the additional files do show up normally when I open the disk from within Windows. I thought it was an ImgBurn problem, but I discovered the same thing happens using Nero Express. The weird thing is... I used this exact same copy of Nero 6 to burn boot CD's on my old computer, and the additional files on those disks do show up in DOS when I boot this system using them. Does anybody knwo what might be causing this? Thanks in advance.
