Instaling W7 64 bit from XP 32 bit,

[mitch212k]

Hi all,

Have a retail W7 HP package and I want to install 64 bit. I tried booting from the 64 bit disk but I get errors about no bootable media, am I missing something?

Cheers.

Are sure you have your DVD drive set as the boot drive in your BIOS/Boot order menu?

You can also check the disc is not faulty by booting from it on a different machine [it won't cause any damage unless you choose to install so this is perfectly safe].

Cheers for your reply Sirius, got it sorted in the end.
