if you mean to make a bootable CD...we need to know a little more information. What exactly are you trying to do? Nero burns the data to disc and does not make bootable.

Read this article:

You can make bootable discs with Nero
Here's a link to the Nero support tutorial on how to do this with Nero 7. They also have tutorials for versions 8 and 6, but the process is probably very similar between them.

I should have said that Only the Paid For version of Nero has the capabilities to burn bootable CD's

Your Install Disk is a Bootable CD as are MS-diskettes
 
I'm old and cranky. And totally turned off by these so-called easy to use fire-balls called Bootable CD's. They are not bootable, they are a conglomeration of hair raizing mini-tools to get your computer to the point where you might be able to boot it...and they always come in some format such as ISO whereby you have to be a rocket scientist to build the dang thing.

For my money, it is a darn sight faster/easier to load a clean copy of Windows over the old one, without deleting the extra files when asked.

You should always have a complete copy of the system32 folder at the ready so that you can just copy the old system32 folder over to the cleaned up one.

Also have a disk handy with all of the "programs" you have running so that they can easily be accessed and reloaded should the latter statement not pull its weight.

I tried this:
 
For making the bootable CD, I tried Nero.

First i made the image file of the setup files, (whole 1.70 GB) and then I burnt it on a DVD.(One of my sister helped me out.)
Won't this work?
I will reply after i check the DVD.:)

Go here and download the Nero 7.0 manual, the info you require is on PAGE 36.
