I am new to downloading/installing Vista beta OS images, and need some very basic guidance. Build 5384 downloaded without incident; however, it is a file type .ISO and doesn't self-install when double-clicked. So does it needs to be burned to a DVD, or is there another app that will do install the image for me?
Also, I just want to confirm that Ultimate 5384 uses the key category "Vista Ulitmate 5270 and up Product Keys".

Basic installation procedure question, locating keys
To install 5384, you need keys from 5342 and up. I use http://www.daemon-tools.cc or NERO Image drive. -- -- Andre Windows Connected | http://www.windowsconnected.com Extended64 | http://www.extended64.com Blog | http://www.extended64.com/blogs/andre http://spaces.msn.com/members/adacosta

You have to burn the iso (as DVD image, don't burn it as a file) then boot on this DVD. About keys, I read on microsoft.public.windows.vista.general you need a key for at least 5365 and up, so you'll have to generate a new key on microsoft connect.
