Whats the best program to burn ISO images with.
I allways have a DVD writter in my machine that has Nero Express on installed that came with the Burner.
Tidying up a hard drive I found and old ISO but have no idea what is is. Nero does not look (maybe wrong) like it supports it.
TIA.
A link for any programs would be appreciated. :y

imgburn (free), Sonic (though bought by roxio, and wrecked into their CD Creator).
UltraISO (commercial) to look inside the iso file...

UltraISO is very good. Not only can you read the contents of an ISO, you can unpack them too. Probably not worth $30 for just one ISO, but I find it very usefull. It's here
UltraISO Site (http://www.ezbsystems.com/ultraiso/)
if you are interested.
[edit]Or, for the cost of a CD-ROM you could burn it. Have a read here:

Nero Express is a cut down programme usually supplied foc with burners. I have always used Nero Burning Rom which has no problems handling ISOs.

Nero Does support ISO files, you just need to select the 'burn an image to disk' option. This then asks for the location of the .iso file, and allows you to specify a location, or browse files to find the one you want. This can then be burnt to disk (CD or DVD, according to which media you selected when Nero opened.
This then burns a disk you can run on your computer.
Hope this helps Skruntie! :y

Will try later.
Just setting up a computer for a mate after a format and reinstall.
Just been told he is away for the weekend so gives me plenty of time to test and play.
Mine needs the same treatment but I cannot format it at the moment as there are some login details I cant remember and I dont want to lose the accounts.
Nice to be playing on a fresh install again though. :y
-
use daemon tools!
you can open it and use it without burning :y

Starting with Nero 7, Ahead seemed to have lost a grip, so I stopped using it...

Last install I did was 5.5** or better. So miles away from version 7.
Maybe time to buy a new burner, this ones a Pioneer 110, dont even know what they are up to these days. as tou can tell I very rarely use a writer.
So, If I go out and do some shopping, what burning software do I need.
Time for catch up me thinks.
TIA :y

In a recent survey, Apple was declared the most gay-friendly brand.
So its not me who says its gay - though anyone who buys for style over substance is way too much in touch with their feminine side....

My Pioneer 104 wore out now got a 111 but my PC being a little old could not always keep up with Nero or Ulead burning tools, IMGBurn is polite and waits for the PC to catch up - no coasters since.

I'm still using Nero Enterprise Edition 6.6 - have Nero 7 Enterprise but agree there are issues with it altho it works ok on my daughters dual core laptop running XP Pro.

Don't think v6 works on Vista iirc. 99.9% of my burning needs are covered by the freebie roxio that always comes included with most PCs, or older (pre roxio) Sonic.

I use InfraRecorder.
http://infrarecorder.sourceforge.net/
It seems to be a free open source type of thing, much loved
and recommended by the open source Linux type guys.
Mine is for Windows 2000/ XP/ Vista.
Burned an ISO with it (using XP). It was fast, accurate and easy
peasy to use.
Perhaps one of you IT gurus would like to to download it, try it,
and give a professional opinion on it compared to the the other
burners you've used?
