[QUOTE="CoryNardin, post: 937553, member: 130417"] I have a Mac, and my company doesn't like Mac folks. They won't provide much in the way of support. What I am trying to do is install Windows XP SP3 on to my MBP. I am running snow leopard and I do have the latest Fusion installed. Here is the problem that I am facing. I have the entire contents of the installation CD, but it isn't in an ISO/DMG format (it is just a folder). I burned the folder, but when I try to boot from it, I get a message saying that the image isn't bootable. I have spent about two hours trying to figure out what it would take to make this thing bootable, but just can't figure it out. There is some information for Windows machines, but I have found nothing specific to Mac. The closest that I have found is about copying a bootable image and burning it. Any help is appreciated!
