Been Done, However
I went through burning a boot disk in Nero 6, and pointed it to the local ISO file, but to no avail.
The system boots to that CD, but with no reaction. No, display, no nothing.
Could it be that the ISO is corrupted? I used the x86 platform version, and Power Archiver to decompress the file.
Anything else you could suggest?
