Windows 7 won't boot from DVD

[BOB]

I know that this probably isn't where this should be posted, but I can't seem
to find anyplace better..??
Anyway, I have Win 7 Enterprise upgrade both 32 & 64 bit DVD, these are
from MS donation for non-profits. I have tried booting these on 2 different
pc's, and it won't boot on either. I am able to boot the XP & Vista DVD's
without any problems. The pc's have XP on them now. Everything is set
properly in bios etc, they just won't boot..
What am I doing wrong ?

Hello Bob,

Also make sure the disk has real file structure and not only the .iso image
which must be burned to disk with a program that is able to burn/extract
the .iso file.

Best regards
