Power ISO non bootable image?

WeirdoFreak

I have an ISO file that I want to burn to cd/dvd so I can boot from the cd/dvd but when I open Power ISO it says it's a non bootable image.

I don't use Power ISO an awful lot, is there a way of making the file bootable.

In the past I've opened some files by mounting them and selecting "No Media". But I don't think it's possible all with files.

Any ideas

What is the ISO of? is it a bootable program?

Ok first of all WHY? its a terrible OS.

And just try burning it anyway and see if it boots.

I know I don't really like it, but I'm having some problems ever since I installed windows 7 so want to re-install vista. I already tried burning it, but it's not booting up when I insert disc, it just has the ISO file on the disc.

Wait now, I think I've actually just sussed it out as we speak.

You must have been burning the ISO to the disc as a file rather than copying the image as a disc

Yep I think that's what I was doing. Cheers:D
