I purchased a MSI Wind U100-432US netbook, mainly for use as a jukebox
using iTunes. [It works great!] I've never had a Windows machine
before, having used Macs since they were a Lisa.
There is a data DVD that came with the netbook, that I'd like to put
into the netbook. I tried using both
Alvin,
I am confused. Not sure I can figure out what you are trying to do.
So, here is my guess:
1. The netbook has no internal DVD drive, and you don't have an external
one you could hook up.
2. You want to make the DVD available as a DVD to the Windows XP netbook.
3. In which case, you
UPDATE: I sent the Coby back to Amazon for a refund. After a few recharge
cycles the glue that held on the front plate stopped working entirely. I
think that is enough to justify a return so I won't mention its countless
other faults. I'm glad to see it gone.
I am no longer looking for a
I too am confused by the question. Presumably the included DVDs are
plain UDF data disks, so it should be a simple matter to copy the
files over. Why are you trying to make a disk image?
And no, by default, WinXP won't know what to do with an .iso disk
image. Unlike Mac, which must include
Is it not possible to simply copy the files from the CD on the mac to the
thumb drive? I know some installers won't work this way and NEED to be on
the cd to work, but it may work this way also.

Wish to note that there is nothing in the printer start up guide that says
you need a USB 2 cable, and not sure why anyone would simply assume that
this is known, given that a lot of people must be in the similar position of
replacing printers or other devices that ran on 1.0 cables.

There are several different types of USB connectors, but no special
cable is needed for USB2. Presumably the first cable you tried is just
defective. Try it again now that you can hear the printer connect
(Windows makes the USB dis/connect sound).

Thank you, everyone who responded.
The netbook doesn't have an optical drive.
I didn't want to take a chance on just copying files and leaving
behind critical invisible files.
I looked up Roger's suggestion of the free
winxpvirtualcdcontrolpanel_21, which is unsupported, and that led me

Well the first sentence of the write up says it is based on IE code and
IE only runs on Windows. So that is prominent. No?

Perhaps so, but
I figured the browser was for Windows, but there could have been

Well, no. If the browser is built on MS's IE code base it is going to be
Windows only. Back whan MS was trying to grab market share they did have

I've seen similar statements in a couple of write-ups, and something doesn't
sound right. Since IE is proprietary, how could GreenBrowser could be based
on it?

cables which won't.
The original USB 1.1 cable standard is sufficient for USB 2.0 use if
the cable maker adheres to the standard. The trouble is that cable

Just bought 3 USB cables this week at Monoprice.com. Very good quality,
better than expected. Also bought Cat 6 cable and HDMI cables from
them--all good. So are the prices.
