HI guys, i´m trying to make a backup of my old windows cd, ´cause it´s seeing it´s last days, but i can´t make it bootable. Tried to do it in nero, but it only boots into dos, and it wont start up the windows setup from there. So the question is, how do i make a bootable dvd???
 
if you just copy it exactly, it will be bootable.

otherwise....use a program called nlite to make an ISO for you, and while you are there you can also customise loads of things about windows in general.

Yes, you need to copy the boot sector off the disc, which an iso will do, rather than just copying the files which will not copy the boot sector.
