Creating bootable DVD

[rfoster12]

Hi

 

I have a question about creating a bootable DVD for the Windows 2008 operating system. In the past I have been using the NERO software to make bootable Windows CDs for other operating systems.

 

I downloaded the Trial version of the Windows 2008 64 bit version which is about 2.5 GB. The issue that I have is that when I try to make a bootable DVD in Nero, it complains that one of the files is over 2 GB and will not allow a bootable ISO to be created.

 

I am able to burn the DVD with the UDF file system, however, this is not bootable.

 

I can not upgrade from an existing 32 bit operating system with the 64 bit Windows 2008.

 

Can someone assist with the steps to create a bootable DVD with the 64 bit Windows 2008 operating system?

 

Thanks in advance for your assistance.

I haven't use Nero so I'm not sure why it won't burn the ISO. You shouldn't have to make the dvd bootable. It will be bootable once it is burned.
