511704 2007-01-01 23:38:00 Don't know the answer to your question, but the best way to burn an ISO file to CD/DVD is to use Nero.

The ISO file would have the same files in it.

And if the cd is a bootable one, it would most probably work, if u burned the ISO directly to a cd.

In Nero, you would also have to select a different option, after u extracted the files from the ISO file.

Since it would no longer be an ISO, if u used Nero.

In some cases there is more on the disc then what you can view via Windows Explorer, usually in the way of copy protection but also for other reasons. If you have it in ISO form then it is recommended you burn it as an ISO.

ISO is generally used for cross platform file burning. Designers and Mac operators use it a lot when burning files on Mac to be read by the client or print bureau on PC. Its not better or worse just a necessity.
