Seriously dude, you need to stop spamming the forum. Do me a favor and delete some of your duplicate topics and next week I will hop on TeamViewer and help you out. I'm visiting the in-laws over the weekend.

Anytime you need to post more information, try using the Edit button on a single post instead of making a dozen of them. Your cluttering the forums, which is coming off as rude, and there aren't any mods around to clean it up.

Thanks and I will hook up with you in a few days.

I took my earlier post and re-organized and expanded upon it to create a PDFed MS Word document (doc). A number of things that you've said are giving you problems I addressed in my original post to hopefully help you avoid them. So, if that post was too convoluted, maybe this pdf file will be better. It's not in a step-by-step format as in 1, 2, 3, 4, etc, but I think it should still be helpful. It would be best to download and read it with Adobe Reader or Foxit Reader rather than read it on Dropbox.

Right click and choose to open in new tab because that function isn't automatically set on this website.

Well, look and read through that pdf file first, follow each section's directions, and see if it helps you with what you need to do. The primary purpose of creating that documentation was to try and help you get KA to run without anyone's help. I'm not trying to be mean or ignore you, but you've got a lot more consolidated info in that pdf file than I think has ever been created to help someone get KA installed and running. Granted, I like instructions of the step 1, 2, 3, 4 variety; and maybe that's the format I should have used per instruction sections; but you can still do what you need to do with the instructions provided if you follow each each section, i.e. (i.e. is short for "that is")...

Trekcore Klingon Academy DVD Build Instructions – Rewriteable DVDs Preferrable....7


The only thing I can't help you with is creating the DVD because I've never made one for KA. So, I'd have to read and follow the Trekcore instuctions. The one thing I can recommend; and probably should have mentioned in the pdf file; is that I have used ImgBurn in the past and maybe Burnaware that are both mentioned in that 2008 Makeuseof.com article.

The last time I "think" I used ImgBurn was back 2010 when Windows 7 RC (Release Candidate) was downloadable from Microsoft to try. Since I seldom use my DVD burner, I thought this was a good time to try it and make a label on the DVD with the included LightScribe capability and software. I think I bought a 5-pk of LightScrible capable Memorex DVD-RWs from Fry's Electronics that was at or under $10. Even though the DVD read speed of my drive is fast, I think the burn speed was rather slow, but normal, and then having the DVD drive's LightScribe software create a label on the DVD was also slow.

The one thing I vaguely remember that I liked about ImgBurn is that is was pretty user friendly. There were these little pop-up messages to ask if you wanted to do something if the software detected you were trying do something, but you hadn't enabled an option or a feature to do it right. Also, I think it allowed for the creation of a test run version of what you wanted to create in terms of a bootable DVD. For example, the KA DVD Kit instructions are for making a DVD that you can just pop in your DVD drive and it will be detected like any other DVD with a software installation program. So, if I'm remembering correctly, ImgBurn should allow you to create a test run version of the KA DVD to make sure everything works ahead of time. Of course, if you choose ImgBurn or another program, you're still going to have to spend some time reading the directions and some trial and error time making the KA DVD.

So, again, walk through that KA install pdf that I spent all day yesterday creating and editing to see if it will help you with most everything you want to do. Then, if you run into a snag, post that you need help, once , and either Teeth_03 or I will get back to you when we can. Personally, I don't have a problem if you post you're having a problem with something, post later you solved the problem, and then follow up later with getting stuck with another problem. That's just how the troubleshooting learning curve works. Just remember, we're not tethered to our computers and we have other life priorities. So, we might not reply immediately.
