779676 2009-06-05 11:15:00 When I look at the offline options I have;

Visual Studio Professional edition
Visual Studio SP1 download and
Visual Studio Team system 2008

which of these do I choose?

779677 2009-06-05 11:54:00 sorry to sound like a complete newbie, but this microsoft site is awfully convoluted. I have finally found the iso file I need to download and will burn it and run it tomorrow. Thanks for you help. Scot (14653)

Happy to help - yes, the Microsoft sites can be very poorly designed at times.

779679 2009-06-06 05:06:00 I have downloaded and burned the offline . iso installation file to a DVD-R .

My instructions were to seek out the setup . hta file and double click on it to begin the installation . Well, I have verified my DVD, but when I come to search the drive it shows nothing, no files at all, least of all a 'setup . hta' file .

If I put the disc in the drive it self-boots by bringing up NERO DVD burner . Any suggestions?

Thanks

How did you burn it? Did you just burn the . iso file as a . iso file onto the DVD? It should be burnt as an "image" - the easiest way is to grab ISORecorder and use that: . alexfeinman . com/v2 . htm" target="_blank">isorecorder . alexfeinman . com though you should also be able to do it with Nero .

779681 2009-06-06 05:27:00 Or you can download something such as Magic Disc (www.magiciso.com), then mount the iso so that you don't need to burn another CD/DVD.

Or you can extract files from it with WinRar or 7zip

779682 2009-06-06 06:01:00 Thanks to you both. I couldn't burn the DVD with ISOrecorder as it turned out - don't know why. Said disc was unusable. I then downloaded MagicDisc and all was revealed. The installation is running and should go to completion with any luck.
