Re: Trouble with slipstreaming

Are you certain you are using the "Burn Image" option rather than just
copying the iso file itself to disc? If you pop the CD into your drive from
Windows does it autorun and show you the install screen? If you can only see
a file called .iso then you will need to use the correct option in RecordNow
to burn an image.

If you burned the disc correctly then your BIOS might have a Fast Boot or
Rapid Boot (or some such similar) setting. If so disable it. If this is
enable you might find that the system boots too fast not giving your CD-Rom
device a chance.
