    Okay, try burning another dvd at the slowest speed. What speed did you make it at?

    Hold off on this Jesse, you don't need a dvd you can just use the ISO

    I did it with NTI media maker. Should I do it with Windows instead of NTI? Also, my Internet connection is a little slow, so it will take it a while to download.

    Just download the ISO, you do not need a dvd. Let us know when you have the ISO downloaded.

    When you have it, create your own thread, name it Jesse's 10 install. Then Edwin and Bill, as well as myself and anyone else can continue to assist you.

    Doug is right, you just use the iso file to install in a VM, you don`t need a disc.

    Jesse I thought you were going to wait on 10, you`ll see it`s no big deal.

    It might take a while to download, as my internet is slow at downloading things. But, it's downloading right now.

  9. AddRAM, I just didn't want to install it on my hard drive. I felt it would be easier to do it this way, that way it won't hurt my computer. That's why I said I was going to wait on 10.

    you will see when it asks you what you want to use to install W10, it will give you 2 options, use a dvd or the iso file, just change it to the iso file then you browse to the folder where you have it. (click on the small folder icon to browse to the iso file)

    Don`t forget to customize the VM hardware ( you will see a customize button at the bottom of one of the windows when you create it) change the cpu to 2 cores, and raise the memory to at least 2688 MB.

    Jesse, whenever you burn an OS to a dvd or cd the burning software gives you a speed option, always choose x4 speed.
