The boot disk has to be IN the floppy drive BEFORE you 
turn the computer power on.

Is the Burner plugged in to a USB port? If so, make sure the version of Windows 95 you are using is B. Other versions do not support USB. Also, Make sure you have the appropriate drivers for the Windows 95 OS. The Burner might not support Windows 95.

You might verify that the bootdisk has been properly 
made by trying it in another (working) computer.  It 
should boot up ANY computer, if it's a good bootdisk.
