Default Pre-rc1 launching iso file

Hi, I was one of the 100,000 persons to download the iso file yesterday. But
I had to leave to go to work so I I shut down my computer. Now today when I
try to open the file the computer does not know what to do with it. How do I
install this iso file to complete installing Windows Vista RC1?

Thanks for any help,
CK

Hello dr_oracles,

You have to burn the ISO to a DVD first and then install.

No, the file is too big for a CD.

If you have an external DVD burner then sneak it into work and then burn your file. Better yet, get a 4 gigabyte USB flash drive and copy the file unto it and bring it home and burning it to a DVD.
