As in boot from the disc? You have to change the boot order in the BIOS or press the required key to start a boot from the disc. Or you can run the disc in Windows to start the install.

Do you meet the Sys Requirements for WIN 7 Just a Caution

Note at the bottom of page additional requirements for XP

http://www.microsoft.com/windows/win...uirements.aspx

Windows XP Mode requires an additional 1 GB of RAM, an additional 15 GB of available hard disk space, and a processor capable of hardware virtualization with Intel VT or AMD-V turned on

What I'm looking for, if possible, if there is an automatic way of just putting the Win7 disk in and have it automatically install. Is there a way I can do this?
Thanks,

Splistreaming is incorporating service packs or updates/patches not to automate a Windows install.

This may be more of what you are looking for: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...displaylang=en

to slipstream a copy of any win OS is to do a automate install with what ever you you need for your company, if you need everbody to have software like photoshop then you add that to the slipstream, give everbody a disk and it will install automate
