This is what i did (mistake and helped Paul)
in brief,
1. ( i assume that you have downloded correct iso images), then, write-click
on one image and open with... in the CD burner software (exe),
it will open the cd burner program and automatically start the burning
process.
2. those cd's made by this way are sure bootable
3. try the first and 2nd images (it is enough for the intallation)
good luck
