How do I build a BOOT disk!

Question

I've used Ubuntu a few years ago and got a error regarding a Password. I never had a password for this computer, but it really said I did and I tried and tried to get it corrected.... I finally gave up I bought the last 64 bit cd-- and when I pulled it out, it had a sractch on it... I don't want to buy another.

I've downloaded the iso file! I unzipped it and burned it to a DVD but I can't get it to boot the computer???

what am I doing wrong? This is the third time I've burned it! I need help aj

I have to ask. Did you set the boot order in the BIOS to boot from CD/DVD? — Mitch, Aug 29 '13 at 17:14

You can, under Windows, create a bootable USB Pendrive (I always use this software, and never gave me any issues: http://www.pendrivelinux.com/universal-usb-installer-easy-as-1-2-3/)

Then, plug it in, on the BIOS, set it to boot from USB, and done, boot up a LiveUSB session, and install from there.
