Problem with ISO files
I'm having a problem with downloading/coping ISO files to make adisc for any Linux program. I either have the "Dell burner that came instaled with my Dell computer or a product called Sonic. sonic indicates it can burn ISO files but when I try it the file shows on the CD but I can't seem to use it.

I know I'm doing something stupid but alas can't figure it out.

you need to burn it as an image. The best bet on how to do this is download the nero trial, and use it's Burn Image option. Just be sure to set the file type to show ISOs.

If you have Windows XP, try using the ISO Recorder Power Toy.
