How do I get Nero Express to recognise a .img file extracted with ISO buster? The only option seems to be to read a floppy disk.

Indeed, and I got all the way through the slipstreaming instructions, and found the burning instructions are for the full version of Nero, not Nero Express. If you don't want to spend additional funds on the full version of Nero, it appears the only other cost effective option is to download the Win32 port of mkisofs and use that to create the ISO, which Nero Express will burn without any problems at all. I used BartsPE builder to make a bootable BartsPE CD, it uses mkisofs to make the bootable ISO and Nero had no trouble at all burning a CD from that.

Or you could just change the extension to .iso and it will burn perfectly ...

The Boot Image file you need will be no more than a few kb in size. You haven't mentioned what this program is that you're trying to boot with, so it's going to be hard for anyone to help you. But if you track down that file, then you can put it on a floppy and load it into Nero from there to create your boot cd.

In my (admittedly limited) experience it's normal for an image file to be larger than the sum of the files in the image. Try and see. -- Petrushka | Wellington, NZ de_meun at yahoo dot com

Its the part about making the ISO image boot with the boot data that the Windows XP CD uses ... thats what nero express cannot do. There is a utility to make iso images slipstreamed with service packs and updates and additional packages, and even delete windows components (eg delete IE .. )..
