Buring it as a file just leaves the .iso file on the CD; burning it as an image expands it into a bootable CD.
Dan, it depends on your software. The burning capability that is built into WindowsXP is incapable (as far as I've ever been able to figure) of burning an image; it only burns files. Third-party software for Windows should have the capability, as does Mac and Linux software (you don't give any info on what type of system you have). -- Kent -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
