Is there a way to install windows through a dmg and not a disc? I have the windows software, but I don't have a physical copy. How do I install it using bootcamp?

G'day and welcome to the forums.

Is this an original, not previously authenticated .iso file of Windows?

Two things come to mind here.....

First, where did you get the image file from? And second, if your Mac has an optical drive, you will be unable to install directly from the image.
