This may not be enough. Right click and choose 'Run as Administrator'

dd if=debian-live-6.0.6-amd64-gnome-desktop.iso of=I: results in "read

See this page 
http://blogs.arcsoftwareconsultancy.com/pi/2012/02/23/how-to-make-a-bootable-sd-card-for-the-raspberry-pi-using-windows/
 where it suggests that error may come from not using the block size parameter, 
bs, try 'bs=1M'. There is also some debate over od vs of, I don't know which is 
correct.

Thanks Andrew! It worked. The 'dd' command's documentation was wrong.

This worked:

dd bs=1M if=debian-live-6.0.6-amd64-gnome-desktop.iso od=I:

In particular, the 'od=' switch is not documented (I would guess that 'od' 
means 'output device').

Now that I can/have run Debian-Gnome, I have some studying to do. My first 
objective is to get WiFi working. Wish me luck, and thanks for your help.

Ciao - Mark.
