Use the burn image to Disc option.Don't burn the ISO file to the disc :eek:
Vista ISO? I really hope thats a BACKUP COPY
cause you know we arent allowed to talk about pirated software here :)
Normal 'Copy' will not work.
You'll need to 'burn the image'. (sorry for the misleading term. :p)
This is what you do in Nero:
1. Close the 'New Compilation' dialog.
2. Make srue correct recorder is chosen. (select from the combo in toolbar or Recorder>Choose Recorder menu)
3. Click Recorder > Burn Image.
4. Select the image and click ok.
5. Burn it.
In Nero Express:
1. Choose "Disk Image or Saved Project".
2. Burn.
Its not pirated, I have MSDN subscription.Quote:

There's also a program called alcohol120% that i use and is really a nice piece of software for burning and ripping iso's. It also lets you create virtual disk drives.

If the ISO is bootable(Vista ISO has to be) then you don't have to worry about that.
i use powerISO, just load the iso file into powerISO click burn will do it.

I tried that already, copied vista iso as it is to a dvd, tried booting with it. Nothing happens.......Quote:

You can burn the ISO to whatever media you want to. And as far as it being bootable that's entirely dependent on the ISO.Quote:

Tell us what software you have then we'll give you instruction for that software.
Nero, Alcohol 120%, PowerISO, MagicISO, all are capable of burning iso images.
has anyone recommended CD Burner XP yet? I use it in Windows for most of my burning tasks.
(free)
The MSDN subscription vista may actually not be bootable. It may actually be only intended for upgrading an existant version of windows. Once you have burned the CD, put it in your computer with windows already started up and see if an autorun starts. If not, check the contents of the CD and see if you can find some sort of generic exe that would begin the install process.
