How to make a windows XP Bootable cd?

Hello everyone, your help is required again.

I want to make a Windows XP Bootable Cd. For that, I have the XP ISO file. But I don't know which software to use or what is the process. So if any one of you guys knows about this, please help.

Thanks in advance

Hey cmon what ur trying to do is called piracy and a pirated OS might set some hazardious issues on ur hardware. So I suggest purchasing a guenine copy of the OS ur willing to use.

BTW, if u still want to carry on with that pirated OS .iso copy, then in my openion u should use ALCHOHOL 120 or the much prefferd NERO BURNING ROM.

just burn the iso to cd/dvd using poweriso. its that simple.

If OP has a legit copy of Windows Xp CD then he can create a ISO file to make a backup CD - it's not piracy and it's completely OK.

@ OP - use ImgBurn - it's the best freeware app to make a CD/DVD ;-)

To create a bootable XP CD that pre-installs additional programs, first install Windows Unattended CD Creator [WUCC]. You need to have Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0 or higher installed.

Yep, if the .iso file is of a bootable disc, you need simply burn it to CD using any software and it will work. Use burn from iso option.

Not necessarily piracy if he has his own legal copy of the CD etc etc whatever. :-D

However @OP, you need a program like pebuilder(freeware) which allows you to make a Live Disc ie, you can compile the desired CD/DVD with your OS, then burn it into a CD/DVD and use it as the installed OS right from the optical drive itself. If you want to make an installation CD out of your ISO, then follow the other suggestions like Alcohol120, Nero Burning ROM etc.
