Using ImgBurn
ImgBurn is an awesome free utility that will create ISO images, allow out burn almost anything, and a lot more. Although there are a lot advanced features available, burning an ISO to disc is easy. Download and install ImgBurn (link below) taking the defaults in the install wizard.
The main thing to watch for and uncheck during installation is when it offers
the worthless Ask Toolbar.
The easiest way to use ImgBurn is to burn an image to disc is pop in a blank
disc to the CD/DVD drive, right
-click on the ISO file, and select Burn using ImgBurn.
ImgBurn opens up with the source and destination
fields already filled in. You can leave the default
settings, then click the Write button.
You’ll notice that the ImgBurn Log screen opens, this
is by default and is meant to show error messages you may receive
during the writing process.
A successful burn! That is all there is to it…click Ok and
close out of ImgBurn.
Use ISO Recorder
ISO Recorder (link below) is another great utility for burning ISO images to disc. They have a version for XP
, Vista, and Windows 7 (32 & 64-bit Versions). Pop
your blank disc into your CD/DVD drive and right-click
on the ISO image file and select Copy image to CD
from the Context Menu.
In the next screen the image file path is in the Source Image file field. Under Recorder select the drive with
your blank disc, select a recording speed and click Next.
You’ll see a progress screen while the data is written to
the disc and finalizing…
That’s it! Your disc will pop out and you can click Finish
to close out of ISO Recorder.
Use Windows 7
If You’re using Windows 7, use the built in Windows
Disc Image Burner feature to burn ISO images to disc.
The process is very straight-forward, and for a full walkthrough on this, check
