Yeah. I got my copy direct from the MS website and downloaded the ISO file option via the Windows 7 USB/DVD Download tool to a bootable DVD.
We're back to "clean" installs again
Yes, when you put the burned ISO in the DVD-ROM and reboot, choose the Advanced option rather than the Upgrade.
Be aware, you'll need to re-install all you 3rd party software.
think the difference may be that he got the digital rivers download and needs to apply a tweak to get it to burn a bootable disk
How does the Digital river download differ from and other download?
Thanks for the info, but I don't understand why they would make it so complicated.
Tblount you keep mentioning "tricks" etc. to create a bootable DVD from a Digital River D/L, how about letting us in on the "trick".
I know it has tblount, just thought you could mention the tweak for readers that don't know.
BTW, nice info at your blog(s).
I particularly like your .bat file for disabling task scheduler. Works great.
Actually msconfig won't let me uncheck Task scheduler.Actually you can just disable it through services... when you run MSCONFIG
You should use that method instead if you use True Image because it uses the task scheduler in the clone process.
Actually msconfig won't let me uncheck Task scheduler.
The .bat file does the trick.
Incidentally trying to disable in services.msc is a no go either.
