Pubudu,
   OK, then this CD will not work. What you did is burn a acopy of the
iso file to the CD, like a backup. You need to acutally burn the iso
file image to disk to make it bootable.

   You'll have to look at your windows CD wirting program and figure
out how to do that. They all tend to be a little different, or read
it's help file and look for info on burning iso files. When you do
that you'll get a very different picture of a CD with folders and lots
of files. then it will be bootable.

good luck,
Mark
