Can't boot from Disaster Recovery Boot Disk

Recommended Posts

I created a Disaster Recovery Boot disk on a DVD disk. The file on the disk is named "Restore local disk.iso".

 

I even printed out the recovery instructions.

 

So I thought I'd try it out - after all it is not much good if you can't use it.

 

I set the Bios to boot from the DVD drive. The system will not boot to the ISO image created by Retrospect. The BIOS states the disk is not bootable and says insert a bootable disk.

 

I thought I did!

 

I have a WinXP with SP 3 with a Memorex DVD RW burner. The recover iso file is on the disk.

 

So what do I need to do to make it boot to the disk?

 

Thanks,
