2033 install:

The instructions at

"http://www.petri.co.il/how_to_write_iso_files_to_cd.htm" also apply to

creating a DVD image. Have a great day.

Hi Matt,

 

You need to change the Boot Order in Computer BIOS to boot from the CD

first. And if you are going to install on a new seperate Hard Drive, make

sure that you change the Hard Drive Priority to boot from that Hard Drive

first.

 

Also make sure that you partition the Hard Drive and don't use a Hard

Drive partition of over 50 GB in size, because of the amount of time to run

the maintenance programs on those partitions. Storage Partitions can be

greater than 50 GB, but not the operating system's partition.
