Where have I erred? An ISO file is a CD image. When you burn the ISO file to the cd, you just copy the file. You need to tell the program (Gtoaster, GCombust etc) to write a cd from the ISO. So point to the image file and create a cd from that. There's a fine difference, I hope you see it. >I used neroburning (gulp) windows 98 Everyone's allowed one big mistake.
