How to Burn an ISO to a CD on Vista
ISO is a disk image file format. An image file is a single binary file that contains an exact disk copy, including the original disk file structure and the boot sector information. The ISO format is commonly used to copy a CD or DVD disc. Windows Vista native tools do permit making a CD from an ISO, but you can also accomplish this task with the popular Nero software suite.
