    if its a image or bin/cue you should just burn it as such...

    Get a DVD-rw so you can keep trying, fucking up and using the same DVD.

    1)Download UltraISO
    2)Open UltraISO
    3)In UltraISO go to TOOLS>>>MAKE CD/DVD IMAGE
    4)Select the drive and make sure the output file is STANDARD ISO.
    5)Download Alchole 120% and burn the image with that with DOA settings applied.

    @Muchspl - DVD images cannot be Bin & Cue and most DVD Images user ISO to keep a certain file structure.

    If all else files try a 1:1 copy with A120%.

    right then if its a bootable dvd it should already be a image/iso

    just open nero and close the wizzard and choose recorder > burn image
    you may have to change it to all files in the drop down box.

    I think he's saying he has the Windows All in 1 on a dvd working already but he wants to make a copy of it (for a friend or if a friends lending it to him) and because of the ISO structure needed to keep the files bootable any atempts he has done not through making it an ISO or a 1:1 copy mean the disc hasn't been bootable.

    Thats what i got from his original post but to be honest it could be seen as a number of ways due to the lack of english language

    Good advice wish the store would tell people they need programs to burn dvd's , when they buy that new dvd-r . I have a lot friends upgrading their computers
    ony to find they have trouble with this issue. I point them to afterdawn or this site.
