MagicISO or CDImage would do the job nicely. Here's a step by step guide on how to make a bootable Vista DVD with CDImage but it should work with Windows 7.

1. Put the three files (the .WIMs and the .exe) in the same folder or directory. Let?s make the example that the three files all in the C:\ root.

2. Run the .EXE file. A new folder named Vista will be created and it will contain a lot of files. These are the setup files.

3. Exit from the install Windows screen.

4. Download CDimage and install it.

5. Click start on your desktop, open Run and type ?cmd?. A command prompt shell will appear.

6. Type: cdimage.exe -lVISTA_EN_DVD -m -u2 -bC:\Vista\boot\etfsboot.com C:\Vista\ C:\Vistax86.iso.

A bootable Windows Vista x86 DVD ISO image will be created as vistax86.iso in C:\.

7. Burn the ISO image by using a burning software such as Nero. To avoid any error make sure to burn at a 2X or 4X speed.

I really wouldn't recommend upgrading from a beta to a beta. Frankly, I never upgrade, ever. There's just too much that can go wrong. It's so simple to do backups these days, I almost kind of wish Win7 forced a clean install.

"Solution for making Bootable disc:

- Download UltraISO

- Download vlite (google it), when installed, get the "boot.bin" file from it (you can delete vlite after that).

- Launch UltraISO, copy all the files in a new project, and click on:

Bootable -> Load Boot File -> Select boot.bin

- Make ISO & Burn."

That was a comment from the Win7 7048 comment section. That's how you make it bootable. The boot.bin file can be found in the Program Files directory. I've just got a trial of UltraISO, and I think that'll work. I've not tried it yet.

No, it'll work just fine.

I had build 7022 (32bit) installed. I made a copy of the .iso and followed instructions similar to those you have quoted. Burned the new ISO to a DVD and restarted, installed perfectly.

7048 x64 works awsome, you even have the option to remove IE8 due to a court case on atm with Microsoft, Goto Control Panel --> Program and Features --> Turn windows features on or off --> Untick IE and restart done :D

Anyway 7048 is still Beta, not the RC that will release in April.

I installed build 7048 today and I have to say WOW! Windows 7 is truly shaping up to be an amazing OS. I really can't wait for this to come out so I can use it as my main OS.

It's Currently installed on a spare hard drive in my computer, dual booting with Windows Vista. I can see myself booting into Windows 7 more and more.

thanks for this, that seems to work. except that i had to downloaded a c*****d ver of ultraISO, but they are to blame if they let only write 300mb or what iso file in trial. :p

No. Its in the Release Candidate chain, this would fall under Pre-RC. Builds prior to 7000 would be pre-Beta.

Havent had a chance to install it yet but its downloaded - Im gonna try that install via memory stick idea. Should be quicker than using another DVD!

I think I mentioned it before but what I don't like about windows 7, this build has the same issue, is that in Vista, if I wanted notepad or power options I could search in the start menu, it would be the first option in the list, hit enter and I'm done. I search for "note" and power. In Win7 note=sticky note and power=powershell. Its a seriously minor issue, but one that really irritates me.

Also, has anyone managed to get steam to work with it? I havent.

    • A coalition of publishers sued OpenAI and Microsoft over scraping content without consent

      By Hamid Ganji · Posted

      A coalition of publishers sued OpenAI and Microsoft over scraping content without consent by Hamid Ganji Image via Depositphotos.com AI companies often rely on readily available internet content to train their chatbots and provide users with instant answers. This method of AI training is fast and relatively inexpensive, but using a website’s content without permission or compensation is not something publishers like to see, and this is exactly why Microsoft and OpenAI are now being sued. As reported by Bloomberg, a group of publishers that collectively own nearly 400 newspapers has filed a lawsuit against OpenAI and Microsoft. The coalition argues that the two companies scraped their content to build AI chatbots like ChatGPT and Copilot without paying any compensation. The complaint, filed in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York, argues that while AI products have generated billions of dollars in market value using publishers’ work, none of that value has been shared with the publishers. The plaintiffs are seeking statutory damages and injunctive relief for alleged copyright infringement and violations of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act. “Defendants systematically and secretly crawled the Publishers’ websites—including content behind paywalls and other access restrictions—and copied the Publishers’ articles, stories, and other original works onto their own servers without authorization,” the complaint states. The publishers also described the AI boom as a “death knell for local journalism” if AI companies that scrape content for free are not held accountable. Former New Jersey Attorney General Matthew Platkin and his law firm, Platkin LLP, are representing the publishers. “Our models empower innovation, are trained on publicly available data, and are grounded in fair use,” OpenAI spokesperson Drew Pusateri told Bloomberg. This is not the first lawsuit involving the unauthorized use of publishers’ content by AI firms, but it is one of the largest coalitions ever formed against the free use of content by AI chatbots. In 2024, OpenAI and Microsoft also faced a similar lawsuit from eight newspapers that claimed AI products were benefiting from their content without permission.
