Current project does not match inserted media!

Well I was able to burn one earlier...

It has DVD R/RW, RW DVD R+ DL and other things that do look towards it being a definate DVD writer. I mean, if I can find a blank CD I can test that. Most seem to have some rubbish on them and I cant really delete it off to get the space back- it isnt one that lets you do that.

I tried getting a USB booting version of Linux, which didn't work either. It couldnt be booted from on this computer or the test rig.

When I managed to get something up on this computer either from the DVD or the USB, it just said 'No system install files found. Insert system file media and press enter' or something along those lines.


Any other thoughts? Is there really no way to simply install it straight onto the hardrive whilst in Windows?
