Every time I try and burn a dvd iso it doesnt work right, its not able to boot from it or read from it, I have tried burning it as slow as I can 4x and it just just keeps trying to read the dvd. Any suggestions?

to burn it you have to BURN IMAGE

use imgburn.com to do it, its not a case of copying the iso file to a dvd in nero..

Well I did us used Alcohol 120% and used the Image burning wizzard option to burn the iso I made onto the dvd. I opened the file in magiciso and it said it was bootable.

Im trying to burn the iso with the program you recommeded now.

That worked thanks. Weird thing is I wasnt trying to burn the ISO image to the cd I was telling to to write the iso to the cd so it would burn the cd as the files not just the single iso image. Guess 120% wasnt up for the task.

120% is obsolete

daemon tools is free

And and and...

If you use a DVD+ try with a DVD-. And vice versa.

Seems dumb but that's what happened yesterday to a friend of mine.

But what happens exactly : does it make any sound or is it simply unrecognized ?

Download UBCD and burn it on the same DVD once formatted; what happens ?

To answer your question Camarade Tux,

It just keeps trying to read it, acting like its a badly scratched cd. It eventually gives up but after about 2 mins of trying.

And what happens with others boot CD ?
