Burning iso file

Hi,

Recently I burned an iso file from a website.

I was given the option to save, and I saved the file to a CD-R.

The burning was successful.

However, I have Roxio Dell Edition burning software on my pc, but it appears not to support iso files. The burned iso file has the Roxio logo.

My question is 'Can Vista burn files'.

Thanks

Os is Vista Home Premium, 32 bit

Hello,

I don't mean to be rude at all, and you may not have done this, but you must copy the contents of the .iso to the disk, not the .iso itself. If you don't know how to burn an .iso, I would recommend using the free 7-Zip: Download

Download, install it, and then open the .iso in it. When it comes up, copy all the files to the DVD, then burn the DVD using windows, or use your Roxio to burn a Data disk, and select the iso and DVD drive. The DVD will most probably be formatted, and so all current data on it will be lost, so back it up.

Thanks for responding.

Having read further, I now believe that the Roxio programme that I have installed on my machine will burn iso files.

Best wishes.

Click to expand...

Yes, start Roxio from All Programs and choose to burn a DATA disk. Show it to your iso file and DVD drive and click Start. All current data on the disk will be lost.

Another option is use Imgburn. After installing Imgburn, right click any .iso file and select Burn Using Imgburn. It's simpler and doesn't convert any video. It won't try to change your file to some other format.
