Perhaps you should be a bit more patient...

You dont burn the iso to a cd as data,  you have to burn it as DAO or what they call (disk at once)...if you burn it as "data" all it will do is make it a non-bootable disk with the filename and all that on there...

Perhaps a GOOGLE would have helped you

Nero specific in fact

Please dont come to someones house and chuck rocks...its not nice and considered very rude!

Oh and another thing..your 1st post to your last (very rude by the way) post was only 24 minutes...in that amount of time perhaps you could have used google to find info on how to properly burn an iso (the guys here dont live on the freeking web or monitor this forum 24/7...

You are lucky I got to you 1st, others might not be in a good mood and not have treated you with kid gloves..any other time and whatever mood I happen to be in you might have gotten another type of "not so nice" reply...

Linux is frustrating...once you learn it you still have to learn more...dont take it out on us...K

still didnt work.. another coaster.
do i just have to burn the ISO, or do i need one of those CUE files, too?
EDIT- what would happen if i "took apart" the ISO into its separate parts and then burned it?

THANKS!!
