I had that problem with my burner because for some reason the dos tools |
| 8 |
flat out refused to work, so I slapped the windows exe on a Windows PE |
| 9 |
(=Preinstallation Enviroment) Iso burned it and booted from that. |

That's basically a Windows LiveCD, except it takes half an hour to boot |
| 11 |
and there's no applications. |

It is a sucky solution, but not as much as having to actually install |
| 14 |
windows/swap out the hardware. |
