Hi,

> Please find attached.

This is from the original image, i assume.

There seems to be some code in the El Torito Boot sector at byte offset
512. It contains the text:
  "QCD-ROM not bootable on this system.Remove CD-ROM and press ENTER
   key to continue."

This is unusual. Normally the bytes after offset 74 are zero.


The Boot catalog begins by a normal header and plarform id.
There is a maufacturer/developer id saying:
  "Microsoft Corporation"

The catalog entry which describes the boot image has 0 as
load segment address. This defaults to address 0x07C0.
All in all it looks normal.


So for now everything points to problems encountered by etfsboot.com
or by programs which it starts.
(In that light, plan B has not much chances. But one never knows.)


Have a nice day :)

Thomas
