This is what is on the disk. I dragged the entire folder over and them open it to reveal the folders - boot, efi, sources, support, upgrade...



However, when I boot from it in the other PC, it doesn't recognize it as a "boot" disk

Right. When I double click the download folder, it opens to all the folders shown in the above picture. I can then move and burn them to the DVD (no burn program opens). But which ones? all?


correction: maybe a burn program does open, I just didn't recognize it.

No you have the dvd open not the file you downloaded. You need the actual file that was downloded to your harddrive. Click file explorer ..downloads

Here's what the file looks like before opening. Here it shows the .ISO extension

No. nothing in the DVD drive. I'm in windows 8 and not very fimilar how to navigate. I know it says "DVD DRIVE E" but there is nothing in the drive. Further, in the download fodlder, it is named "X17-24281" and the type is a "disc image file." You got me!
