Hi, would someone help me? The boot section of my BIOS is as follows. * are the current settings It currently boots to the Hard Drive even though a DVD is in the DVD drive. 1 Removable Device Disabled * Legacy Floppy LS-120 ZIP-100 ATAPI MO 2 ATAPI CD-ROM ASUS CD-S500-A * SONY DVD RW DRU-5 3 Other Boot Device * Disabled SCSI Boot Device INIT 18 Device (Network) 4 IDE Hard Drive Disabled * WDC WD300BB-00AUA1 WDC WD300BB-00AUA1 Plug and Play O/S = No I was expecting to see a device like DVD-RW and the SONY DVD as the option. What do I have to do to boot off a DVD I just burnt? Is something else wrong? ===== If I am not for myself, who will be for me? And if I am only for myself, what am I? And if not now, when? by: Hillel 100 BCE
You should tell it to boot off the ATAPI CDROM. That generally works with any optical drive. shawn On 14-Oct-04, at 8:24 PM, Mel Seder wrote:

I did a few things wrong :-( wrong 1) K3b should be run as root 2) I created a DVD data project <-- wrong 3) this will burn correctly open K3b -> Tools -> DVD -> Burn DVD ISO :-) I hope this will save someone else some trouble. --- Mel Seder <melseder@yahoo.com> wrote:
