iso files to make bootable dvd image

Hey all,

I'm a newbie to iso files and I just downloaded
the 2 iso files for *cough* ms2003 R2 *cough*
trial software. After I downloaded the iso files
I just dragged them to my burn software gui
and sure enough it burned to dvd 2 iso files.

When I attempted to boot the image using VMware
Workstation. It complained that there was no bootable
image on the CD..
I'm wondering if I have to merge the iso files before
I burn them inorder to get a bootable image..???

I have already been successful building Solaris 10 x86
on the same machine using the VMware WS software.

But the DVD/CD boot image had already been created.

Any help would be greatly appreciated Smilie

Brad
