    Yes, but Nero does not use *.img files, you can either follow the instuctions on the manual downloads page, or use dvddecryptor to cut the image.. I use DVDdecryptor as it does this straight from the *.img file. (The program is also free)

    Are you using the Web installer for the package or have you downloaded the full Image. I would personally download the Image and try that.

  • Breakgate

    i meant dir not file

  • arturm

    do i download the file to a file then burn it or direct to the CD using in my case nero

  • Rob B

    what do you mean by the image

    With the Express editions you can download the system using the web installer, this is a small application that once run downloads the rest as it installs from the web.

    Then there is the option for manual download, this is an *.img file that you can then burn to CD and install from there. (I used DVDDecryptor to burn the *.img file)
