      This converter

      Might work to convert the Disk to a single ISO file, which you can then use Rufus to write to a thumb drive to boot on your laptop.

        Unfortunately Windows does not come with the functionality that you need like every other OS does. Just another way that Windows is hard for basic tasks.

        You can download dd for Windows here: http://www.chrysocome.net/downloads/dd-0.5.zip

                  Of course, because you can't copy a filesystem, it doesn't work that way. Nothing there to make it bootable. You need to image it.

                  30 posts to go to this ^.... lol!

                    How to use the DD in Windows?
                    The command prompt opens in the system?

                      I've been using Winimage for a decade plus to create image files from CD's and DVD's.

                      You can check it out here. http://www.winimage.com/

                      Under the Disk menu option at the top there will be an option to create an image from a CD/DVD.

                        The instructions are from here.

                        Rip an .iso from a CD

                        dd if=\\?\Device\CdRom0 of=c:\temp\disc1.iso bs=1M

                          Hmmmm... that's not a good sign. DVD might be bad or the reader might be bad.

                            The command is identical on Windows as it is on other systems.

                              yeah i was wondering if his disk might have copy protection to prevent this.

                                @Dashrender I'd be really surprised if it was protected, being that it has Open Source Operating systems on it....

                                  @Lakshmana From your Desktop with the working DVD drive, put the DVD drive in the DVD tray and download Imgburn from http://imgburn.com/index.php?act=download -- It's only about 4 megs, so a small download.

                                  Watch out when you are installing, it may try to slip in some adware on you, but you can do a custom install and tell it not to install it.

                                  So after you get into ImgBurn, you can choose the "Create Image file from Disc" option...
                                  upload-9ab1e44b-d120-4041-907b-c2bc53465fb2

                                  Then you can copy that ISO image over to your laptop using a USB drive or something. Then tell VMware to use that ISO image when booting your VM.

                                    No real chance of that.

                                      The conversion of DVD is done properly without any error in the Desktop.
                                      When I tried to copy to my pendrive there is an error coming that
                                      "The file is too large to copy in Destination folder".
                                      My Pendrive is 16GB and there is no file in it.
                                      But the file is not copying in it.
                                      I tried to copy the same ISO file to another drive(E) there is no issue in the copying of the file.
                                      I tried to format the Pendrive and tried the same issue comes here.
                                      I have copied another ISO file from another Disk there is no issue in copying to my penndrive.
                                      The converted ISO not able to copy to my pendrive.
