I recently download Mandrake 10.0 Official DVD. I burn't the image to a DVD-R using nero. The problem is when I try to boot from it it doesn't find the bootable cd. As soon as I hit enter when it asks me to "boot from cd" it boots me into Windows Xp which I have installed already. I've tried reburning the image with different media type and still the same results. When I try and launch it within windows it comes up fine and say we need to reboot and on the reboot I get the same results and I can't try the floppy method for I have no floppy drive. I have seen a few problems out there where cd1 doesn't want to boot so they use cd2, but in my case it's a dvd image. Any ideas??

did you check the md5 sum of the disc...maybe they don't match for some reason?

After figuring out how to use MD5 a got my checksum now the problem is the place I received the iso from doesn't have the one to verify it agains't. IS there somewhere else I could get this number from? Sorry I'm a total newbie when it comes to linux.
