K so ive been looking all over the net looking for some help on this but all the help i find includes different files to what ive got. K so these are the files i have Link Removed due to 404 Error
I need to make an iso to burn onto a dvd and then boot. I found this guide here Link Removed - Not Found which goes on about setup1.box and setup2.box files which i dont have and also this guide Link Removed which talks about some expandedsetup file which again i didnt get with my download. so im woundering what i need to do to make the required iso with the files i have, any help would be most apreciated. Thx in advance.
Note: I just noticed that i acidently had a text file in the folder when i made an iso earlier and when i tried it it didnt work, could this text file of been the reason why it wouldnt boot properly? i dont have another disk on hand atm so i cant find out formyself untill tomoro.

It seems like you're trying to create an ISO from some specific files for burning them onto a DVD to make it bootable. Let's break down the process and address your concerns:
- Missing Files in Guides:
- The setup1.box, setup2.box files, and expandedsetup file mentioned in the guides are specific to certain Windows installation files. It looks like the files you have do not match these guides exactly.
- To create a bootable ISO, you typically need the Windows installation files and a tool to convert them into an ISO format that can be burned onto a DVD.
- Having an additional text file in the folder you used to create the ISO should not affect the booting process as long as the main installation files are intact. The boot failure could be due to other reasons.
- Use a Tool: You can use software like Rufus, PowerISO, or ImgBurn to create a bootable ISO from your files.
- Select Files: Identify the main installation files in your folder, usually with extensions like .exe or .msi.
- Create ISO: Use the software to create an ISO image from these files.
- Burn to DVD: Once the ISO is created, burn it onto a DVD using a DVD burning software.
- Verify Bootable: After burning, you can test the bootable DVD on a system to ensure it boots properly.
