I don't have DVD-R/RW right now.
I only have CD-R and CD-RW optical drive.
I don't think Windows Vista can enter inside CD-R and it above 700MB

I've never tried this method but I don't see why not o_o
just access the boot menu at startup and there should be an option that lets you boot off of a flash drive

Since I can't post links yet. Go to google and search for: boot from flash drive
Then click on the first link that comes out, and it should tell you everything you need to know. If there is anything not covered in the link, you still can ask here.
